Capo 5
Em D
He's the first taste of something you shouldn't have
Em D
He's the first lie you tell to your mom and dad
Em D C
He's the reason you love the smell of polo and peppermint
Em D
He's the lips that taught you how to kiss
Em D
He's the reason you know how to drive a stick
Em D C
He's the last time you ever felt innocent
Chorus:
Em C
It's a scene from a Saturday matinee
Em C
It's a song that remembers those summer days
Em C D
Even if that cowboy rides away real slow
D
The boy never stays
Em D
And the love never goes
Em D
He's the reason ferris wheels make you sad
Em D
He's a box full of taped-up photographs
Em D C
He's the feeling that always feels like seventeen
Em D
He's a name that you hardly ever hear
Em D
He's a face that you haven't seen in years
Em D C
That you meet up once in a while in your dreams
Chorus
Em D C
You never fall quite the same again
D
After the first time
C
Forever ends
Chorus
C
Oh the love never goes
Em D
He's the first taste of something you shouldn't have
Em D
He's the first lie you tell to your mom and dad
Em
