Lyrics & Chords
You Ain't the First (2:32)
E A E A
I tried so hard just to get through to you
E A
But your head's so far
E A
from the realness of truth
E A
Was it just a come on in the dark
E A
Wasn't meant to last long
E A
I think you've worn your welcome honey
E A A G6 E
I'll just see you along as I sing you this song
E A
Time can pass slowly,
E A
things always change
E A
You day's been numbered
E A
And I've read your last page
E A
You was just a temporary lover
E A
