The First Time

	  		
Intro: C#  Ab  F#  F# 

Verse 1:
 
C# 
Day after day 
Ab 
I try to explain You 
F#                
Like I can contain You 

In so many words 
C# 
You are the ocean 
Ab 
And I'm on the shore line 
F# 
Thinking I know You 

Like You could be learned 

Pre-Chorus: 

F#      Ab 
  It's so amazing 
F#      Ab         F# 
  That You'd ever save me 


C# 
I thought I knew You're face 
Ab 
I thought I tasted grace 
F# 
But I have never felt anything close to this 
C# 
Just when I'd seen it all 
Ab 
New mercy breaks the door 
F# 
With my eyes opened wide 
C# 
It feels like the first time, first time 
Ab                                    F# 
  It feels like the first time, first time
 

Verse 2:
 
C# 
After all of my searching 
Ab 
All of my reaching 
F# 
I'm left with nothing 

Nothing of worth 
C# 
You treasure the broken 
Ab 
Over and over 
F# 
Give me a hope that can never be earned 

PRE-CHORUS 

CHORUS 

Bridge: 

C# 
And You're beauty, no eye has seen 
Ab 
Your majesty, overwhelm me 
F#                                  C# 
Your love for me is healing, You're God 

 

C# 
I thought I knew You're face 
Ab 
I thought I tasted grace 
F# 
But I have never felt anything close to this 
C# 
Just when I'd seen it all 
Ab 
New mercy breaks the door 
F# 
With my eyes opened wide 
C# 
I feel alive for the first time, first time 
Ab                                    F# 
  It feels like the first time, first time 
C#                                   Ab 
I can see for the first time, first time 
   F#                      C# 
Just like the first time
