The First Time Lyrics

Music by U2
Lyrics by Bono
Tune down 1/2 step, in E major--use these chords for E & A.
I have a lover, a lover like no other
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul and she teach me how to sing
Shows me colours when there's none to see
Gives me hope when I can't believe that for the first time I feel love
(add this when playing the A chord):
I have a brother when I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running, he spends his running after me
When I feel myself going down, I just call and he comes around
But for the first time, I feel love
Hoo...
My Father is a rich man, He wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to His kingdom coming, gave me a cup of gold
He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see."
But I left by the back door, and I threw away the key
And I threw away the key, yeah I threw away the key
Yeah I threw away the key
For the first time I feel love

THE FIRST TIME
Bass line: D-----4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----
(chord D) (chord G)
First play the bass line vary softly, then gradually you can
start playing the chords right away.
I have a lover, a lover like no other
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul
And she teach me how to sing
Shows me colours when there's none to see
Gives me hope when I can't believe that
For the first time I feel love
I have a brother, when I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running
He spends his running after me
When I feel myself goin' down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time I feel love
My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold
He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key...
For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love
