Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
There’s  something sacred when your 17
 ‘Bout a football  jacket and a high school ring
 And it sure  looked nice when you  wore mine
That  late October at the homecoming dance
 We slipped  outside and we took a chance
 In the middle  of the night it  sure felt right
We  let go  right then and there
We  were loved  and we were scared
 (Chorus:)
 For the first  time
 Lovin’ blind  we dove right in
 For the first  time
 We gave everything  and then
Graduation  came
 And our  dreams called  our names
With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
D
For the first ti----------me
 Well I heard the other day
 You’re a Sunday school teacher
 Got the PTA, got a real good life
 You’re a real good wife
 I’m living in this circus world
 No I ain’t married but I got a girl
 And I’m her man and we’re making plans
 But I still smile when I think of us
 Together we learned how to love
 For the first time
 Lovin’ blind we dove right in
 For the first
 We gave everything and then
 Graduation came
 And our dreams called our names
 With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
 For the first time
 Graduation came
 And our dreams called our names
 With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
 For the first time
 For the first time
 Lovin’ blind we dove right in
 For the first time
 We gave everything and then
 For the first time
 We moved on with our lives
 For the first time

We moved on with our lives
For the first time
