I know I said I loved you but I’m thinking I was wrong,
I’m the first to admit that I’m still pretty young,
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
but a guy that I could never get ’cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
and I made you leave her for me and now I’m feeling pretty mean,
but my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know.

Maybe I should give up, give in,
give up trying to be thin,
give up and turn into my mother,
god knows I love her.

and I’m sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
I would never love a man ’cause love and pain go hand in hand
and I can’t do it again.

So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
but I couldn’t get into his head just what was going through my mind,
and I think he knew where I was going
he put Ryan Adams on
I think he thinks it makes me weak
it only ever makes me strong.
I’ve got this friend who sounds just like him,
now he’s the man I’d leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.
The same man, he turns to me he said I’ve got to tell you how i feel,

if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?”
I don’t know more everyday
not in this new romantic way.

I’ll always be your first love, you’ll always be my first love.

And I’m sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware,
I will never love a man ’cause I could never hurt a man in this way.
I will never love a man cause I could never hurt a man, not in this new romantic way.

  1. It’s so great and thanks for it but I just can’t really figure out which strings should I plunk on each chord… Is it so hard only for me? I’m such a beginner…………………. Please help me,someone.

  2. I’m having the same problem, not knowing exactly which stings to pluck for each chord, please help!

  3. For G/Am7sus, F#/Am7sus and Em chords pluck E string followed by G and B strings together.
    For Bm and Am7 chords pluck A string followed by G & B strings together.
    For D pluck A string followed by B & e strings together.
    For G pluck E string followed by B & e strings together.

    There are a couple of bits where she does something a little different but the above works for most of the track – once you’ve got the hang of this then you should be able to work out the extras by listening to the track a few times.

    Hope that helps!

  4. What are the bridge chords (the “first love” bit)?

  5. I see you playing 332010 the first chord.
    but how can that be G/Amsus7?
    G/Amsus7 means a G chord with the bass tone of Amsus7, am I right?
    well I don’t get it 😛
