First Light

Eb    Gm   F
Eb    Gm   F     Bb


[Verse 1]
Gm                      Eb       
I feel it coming before it hits 
              Bb      F
the window and shades.
Gm                          Eb   
Here in the desert it finds me 
                    Bb    F
the same time every day.
Gm7                  Eb          
Fully aware I will hurt if I open
        Bb      F
 my eyes.
Gm                     Eb        
I keep them shut tight and go 
       Bb      F
back to the time.


[Chorus]
Bb                                
First light, I still remember that
  Gm
 long drive. The cold of the wind 
turned.
Eb                                
There burned a fire, a fire so 
      Fsus               F
wild and new.
       Bb                          
And a deep red painted cross the 
             Gm7
sky made you catch your breath,

As do the best things in life.
Eb
Your heart beat
                        C
It moved to rhythm of mine.
                Eb               F
Mine at first light.


[Verse 2]
Gm                       Eb      
I opened a letter dated March the
              Bb           F
 13th, Sunday.
          Gm
You said you were in love with me,
Eb                             Bb
Made it quite clear that you'd 
               F
never felt this way.

Gm7                           Eb 
It's ironic, it's funny when eyes
                       Bb    F
 see perfection they cry.
     Gm                  Eb       
But Oh if they lose it, when they 
               Bb        F
lose it they die.


[Chorus]
Bb                                
First light, I still remember that
  Gm
 long drive. The cold of the wind 
turned.
Eb                                
There burned a fire, a fire so 
      Fsus               F
wild and new.
       Bb                          
And a deep red painted cross the 
             Gm7
sky made you catch your breath,

As do the best things in life.
Eb
Your heart beat
                        C
It moved to rhythm of mine.
                 Bb
Mine at first light.


[Instrumental]
Bb    Gm    Eb    Fsus


[Short Chorus]
Bb                                
First light, can't help but 
         Gm
remember that long drive
                            Eb     
Watching the embers grow cold.
              F

          Bb                       
And with eyes red, I choked on the 
                  Gm
words that were never said.
Like strangers we said our 
   Eb     Fsus
goodbyes... At first...


[Bridge]
Bb                         Eb    
No I won't lose you so I stand in
                    Bb      Fsus
 the path of the train,
Bb                       Eb      
And angry the passengers say that
              Bb       Fsus
 this man is insane,
But you come hold me
          Gm                       
And say "why would you leave me you
   Eb                    Bb       
 know I'm no good on my own?
Fsus

Gm               Eb              
Life is too cold, to grow old all
       Bb         F
 alone."


[Final Verse]
                    Bb/Eb
But it's all in my mind
                     Bb/G
And I'll ache if I wake.
  F                 Bb/Eb
Be filled with desire.
            Bb/G       F
Consumed by years of mistakes
                    Bb/Eb
But if I close my eyes,
                     Bb/G
I'm sure you'll be mine.
    F           Bb/Eb
If I close my eyes,
                   Fsus
I know you'll be mine,
Till...
