Your First Dance

[Verso 1]
 
G          D               Em 
 I woke up late again this morning 
C              G               D 
  To a ringing phone beside my bed 
C         B7                    Em   Em7/D 
   An old friend was wondering how I been 
       C      G/B    C                 D 
Since you and I had come to our bitter end 
        G                D                  Em 
He said could you still remember those old love songs 
C                G                 D 
  For a wedding that still needs a band 
C           B7           Em   Em7/D 
  It don't pay a pretty penny but 
      C   G/B   C              D        G 
I'd sure appreciate if you'd lend me a hand 
 


[Verso 2]
 
G        D              Em 
  When I got out to the venue 
C          G             D 
  Saw your mom and daddy there 
C        B7             Em 
  Then I saw your baby sister 
 Em7/D   C       G/B      C              D 
With a bouquet and white flowers in her hair 
G       D              Em 
  I put two and two together 
C               G               D 
  As a wave of fear washed over me 
C        B7              Em 
  Then I saw you in a picture with 
     Em7/D          C              D   G 
The lucky man that you're about to marry 
 


[Refrão]
 
G        D                    Em         C 
I never thought you'd be the first one 
G          D                   Em     C 
 I always thought that it'd be me 
G               D              Em           C 
 But there you stand with his ring on your hand 
G                          D 
  And I'm in your wedding band 
                  C  G D 
Playing your first dance 
 


[Verso 3]
 
G            D                     Em 
 You told me that you just weren't ready 
C         G                D 
 When I asked you for your hand 
C          D             G 
 Ain't it funny how you changed your mind 
     Em              C        D      G 
And now I find you marrying another man 
 


[Refrão]
 
G        D                   Em          C 
I never thought you'd be the first one 
G          D                   Em    C 
 I always thought that it'd be me 
G               D              Em           C 
 But there you stand with his ring on your hand 
G                         D 
 And I'm in your wedding band 
                  C  G D 
Playing your first dance 
                  C  G D 
Playing your first dance 
                  C  G D 
Playing your first dance
