Falling For The First Time Tab

by Barenaked Ladies


Here's one of my favorite songs to play. Its in standard tuning. I ranked it as 
intermediate because of all the bar chords that are needed to play this song.

[intro]              x2  

[1st verse] 


                     
I'm so cool, too bad I'm a loser
                                            
I'm so smart, too bad I can't get anything figured out
                      
I'm so brave, too bad I'm a baby
                   
I'm so fly, that's probably why it
                                        
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

                    

                          
I'm so green, it's really amazing
                                                
I'm so clean, too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me.
                       
I'm so sane, it's driving me crazy
                             
It's so strange, I can't believe it
                
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

     
 
                                                
Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost
                                            
Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost
                                                 
What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time?
                                                 
What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind
                                                
It feels just like I'm falling for the first time
                                          
It feels just like I'm falling for the first time

These chords repeat to the end of the song. Heres the rest of the lyrics, and i 
hope you enjoy playing this. I know I do.

I'm so chill, no wonder it's freezing
I'm so still, I just can't keep my fingers out of anything
I'm so thrilled to finally be failing
I'm so done, turn me over cause it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

Anything plain can be lovely, anything loved can be lost
Maybe I lost my direction, what if our love is the cost?
Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost
Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost
What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time?
What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind
