  			Bb             D#     Bb                  D#     Bb 
The first love I ever had, the first time I went mad 
               Gm                          C       F 
The first time I left home, the first time I felt alone 
                  D#        Bb                    D#     Bb 
The first time my heart was hurt, the first thing I did wrong 
             Gm                C              F      Bb 
If I had one wish I’d ask to relieve splendor in the grass 

The first time I was ever kissed, the very first person I did miss 
the first time I said goodbye, the first time I felt I’d die 
the first time I felt shame, the first time I was to blame 
If I had one wish I’d ask to relieve splendor in the grass 

B              E     B              E      B 
The first time I did see the wonder of the sea 
               G#m               C#       F# 
The first time I did hold a baby close to me 
          E      B                    E      B 
The first I held near, the first time I felt tears 
             G#m               C#       F#           B 
If I had one wish I’d ask to relieve splendor in the grass
