INTRO: G
G Am Bm C
You are my sweetest down-fall
C D Em D C
I loved you first, I loved you first
C G Am Bm C
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
D Em D C
I have to go, I have to go
Cadd9 C - Cadd9
Your hair was long, when we first met
D Em G
Sam - son went back to bed
G C
Not much hair left on his head
D Em G D
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
D Em G C
And history books for-got about us and the bible didn't mention us
G D Em
And the bi-ble didn't mention us, not
Cadd9 - C
even once
G Am Bm Cadd9
You are my sweetest downfall
C D Em D Cadd9
I loved you first, I loved you first
C G Am Bm Cadd9 C
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
D Em D C
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Cadd9 C - Cadd9
Your hair was long when we first met
D Em
Sam - son came to my bed
G C
Told me that my hair was red
D Em G D
Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
D Em G
Oh I cut his hair my - self one night
G C
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
C G
And he told me that I'd done alright
G D Em C
and kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light
G D Em C Cadd9
and he kissed me 'til the mornin' light
D Em G
Sam - son went back to bed
G C
not much hair left on his head
D Em G D
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
D Em G G
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
G C
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
C G
And history books forgot about us
G D Em C Cadd9
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once....
G Am Bm Cadd9
You are my sweetest downfall
C D Em
I loved you first
