First To Love

D G D G

[Verse 1]
     D            G            D                   G
Yeah Jersey shore 1985 we were boardwalk kids just getting high
      D                        G                             A
Under arcade signs that would shine but they’re missing some letters
     D                    G
Yeah that carousel spins ‘round and ‘round
   D                       G
We ride all day and never leave this town
D                       G                 A
Trapped in the up down, every ambition is tethered

[Chorus]
      Bm      A            D         G            A
Cause who you are is never more than where you’re from
             Bm            A          D         G        A
You were the first one to love me and I was the first to run

[Verse 2]
     D                    G
With fishing boats revving up their gears
        D                            G
And the rich boy you hit are jamming up their piers
D                           G                       A
Springsteen is blaring and girls play who wears it better
D                          G
Underneath those docks we sprayed our names
    D                            G
Are they still there or did they wash away
D                           G                     A
1st avenue’s bricked up and broken but I won’t forget her

[Chorus]
      Bm      A            D         G            A
Cause who you are is never more than where you’re from
             Bm            A          D         G        A    (A holds one measure)
You were the first one to love me and I was the first to run

[Verse 3]
     D                    G
Yeah any further East hey I might’ve drowned
        D                    G
And everything West was just lost and found
D                         G                           A
Tossed in the breakdown searching for something that matters

[Chorus]
      Bm      A            D         G            A
Cause who you are is never more than where you’re from
             Bm            A          D         G        A    (A holds one measure)
You were the first one to love me and I was the first to run
