Written by The Gaslight Anthem

	  		
Intro: Am  F  Am  F  C  G  Am 

 Am         F      Am           F 
All hope abandon ye who enter here 
         C                    G                 Am 
Said the sign I read that was hanging above her bed 
                    F 
And the siren's all willing 
      Am                   F 
But a man can't ignore the signs 
         C                       G            Am 
You gotta keep a good eye on the winding road ahead 

    Am                 C              F 
And my first sin was a young American girl 
    Am                 C              F 
And my first sin was a young American girl 

Interlude: Am  F  Am  F  C  G  Am 

      Am                    F 
And I spent time 'neath the trestles 
         Am                      F 
With the punks and the dimestore saints 
         C                      G                 Am 
We kept faith and a switchblade tucked beneath my coat 
                     F 
And I ran with dirty angels 
Am               F 
Slept out in the rain 
        C                    G            Am 
We were scared and tired and barely seventeen 

    Am                   C                 F 
And my first sin was the fear that made me old 
    Am                   C                 F 
And my first sin was the fear that made me old 

Interlude: Am  F  Am  F  C  G  Am 

          F 
And now I walk down by the shipyards 
         G 
Near the place where I was born 
         C                            F 
Saying Oh Maria if you'da known me when 
    Am       F              Am                   F 
But she only smiles by the light on the Navesink Banks 
         C           G           Am 
Saying Listen baby I know you now 

     Am                 F 
Then she steps into the river 
    Am                  F 
And I just stand by the moon 
 C                     G          Am 
Thinking 'bout a ghost I hear at night 
               Am                   C                   F 
And she says Your first sin was a lie you told yourself 
     Am                   C             F 
And your first sin was a lie you told yourself
