G There’s something sacred when your 17 Em ‘Bout a football jacket and a high school ring C D And it sure looked nice when you wore mine G That late October at the homecoming dance Em We slipped outside and we took a chance C D In the middle of the night it sure felt right Am G/B D We let go right then and there Am G/B F We were loved and we were scared Chorus: G Am For the first time C D Lovin’ blind we dove right in G Am For the first time C D We gave everything and then Em D C Graduation came Em D C And our dreams called our names Am G/B D With broken hearts we moved on with our lives G Am C D G Am C D For the first time Well I heard the other day You're a Sunday school teacher got the P.T.A Got a real good life You're a real good wife I'm livin' in this circus world No I ain't married but I got a girl And I'm her man And we're makin' plans But I still smile when I think of us Together we learned how to love Chorus: For the first time Loving blind we dove right in For the first time We gave everything and then Graduation came And our dreams called our names With broken hearts we moved on with our lives For the first time Oh, graduation came And our dreams called our names With broken hearts we moved on with our lives For the first time For the first time Loving blind we dove right in For the first time We gave everything and then For the first time Qe moved on with our lives For the first time bane!
