For The First Time

For The First Time    
by Gene Watson 
 
C                  C7   F
For the first time in a long time
           G7                  C
I want the sunshine to shine on me
                       C7         F
I want those hillsides to feel me walking
      G7                      C
And I want your love all over me
 
 
Ten years ago I guess you know
  F
I have my heart and my hand
    G7                                   C
But she left me here to grieve but never know
 
All my days have been like nights
   F
My nights have been long days
    G7                             C
But when I saw you I knew I'd love again
 
                   C7   F
For the first time in a long time
           G7                  C
I want the sunshine to shine on me
                       C7         F
I want those hillsides to feel me walking
      G7                      C
And I want your love all over me
