Alan Jackson - FIRST LOVE guitar chord

First Love

Alan Jackson.

[Verse 1]

G D

I was fifteen, she was eighteen,

G C G

The prettiest thing I'd ever seen in my life.

D

An' I loved her at first sight.

G D G C

I found her in Marietta, a town north of Atlanta.

G D

I brought her home to see my folks,

G

They loved her too.

[Verse 2]

D

We were together for a long time,

G C

Thought it would be for all time.

G D

But things change and re-arrange, she had to go.

G C G C

She left me cryin' in '79, an airline pilot in Caroline.

G D

I was a wreck, can't drive a check:

G

It broke my heart.

[chorus]

C D

My first love was an older woman.

C

There's been many since,

D

But there'll never be another.

G C G C

Built in nineteen fifty-five, snowshoe white, overdrive,

G D

I should've never sold her, I'll always love her,

G

She was mine.

Instrumental Break.

[same as verse 1]

Years went by, teardrops dried;

I got her back, I was surprised.

In '93, a gift to me on Christmas Eve.

We were both older, so I restored her.

Could've sold her, for a lot more.

But I will never, she's mine forever,

Until I go.

[chorus]

C G D

I'll never sell her, she's mine forever,

G

I love her so.
