1. I've written words that say I'm leaving, words express the pain, 
           G                 Am F      Dm              G 
    old songs lose their meanings, but new ones they gain. 
               F            Em              Dm                 C 
    From changes that I've been through, and what I'm coming to, 
      C    G          Am  F           Dm       - G - C 
    you were my first song, and I still...         + (repeat chords of this line) 
  
      C        G       Am Em     F       G         C 
2. Sure I still get feelings to get back on the road, 
             G        Am F         Dm                G 
    and I still get leanings to forget the things I know. 
         F            Em        Dm                C 
    About myself and changes, gone through and coming to, 
       C     G         Am   F           Dm     - G - C 
    and you were my first song and  I still...   + (repeat chords of this line) 
  
        C       G        Am Em          F                   G       C 
3. Do words express true meanings, I mean the words I've still to sing, 
               G             Am F      Dm             G 
    old loves lose their feelings, but new ones they gain. 
          F                Em                Dm                C 
    The changes that I've been through, and new ones I'm coming to, 
         G         Am   F           Dm       - G - C 
    and you were my first song,  and I still... 
       G          Am   F           Dm       - G - C 
    You were my first song, and  I still... 
         G          Am   F           Dm      G      C 
    Yes, you were my first song, and  I still love you.
