EAEA
I have a lover, a lover like no other
EAEA
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul and she teach me how to sing
C#mA
Shows me colours when there's none to see
C#mAEAE
Gives me hope when I can't believe that for the first time I feel love
(add this when playing the A chord):

I have a brother when I'm a brother in need
EAEA
I spend my whole time running, he spends his running after me
C#mAC#mA
When I feel myself going down, I just call and he comes around

But for the first time, I feel love
Hoo...

EAEA
My Father is a rich man, He wears a rich man's cloak
EAEA
Gave me the keys to His kingdom coming, gave me a cup of gold
EAEA
He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see."
EAEA
But I left by the back door, and I threw away the key
EAC#mA
And I threw away the key, yeah I threw away the key
C#mA
Yeah I threw away the key
EAE
For the first time I feel love

Gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold
He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key...
For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love
