First Timer Tab

by Elliott Smith


If you have one, it sounds best with a capo on the second fret, making the necessary 
to preserve the original key (A is played as G, Bm is played as Am, etc.)

                                    
I'm a first timer   wishing I was someone else
                         
When I see you by  yourself
                                    
In a coridor  where you find yourself not blocked
                      
By the doors you  locked

                            
 You won't do what the doctor ordered
                    
 You won't see someone else
              
Come on back to me
         
 My pride tomorrow

                                               
You say you feel hollow  and you know it's cause you are
                  
Well at least so far

Solo
A Bm F#m D (you can throw some 7th in to liven it up)
   

                   
 I think of you with hesitation
                 
 I think of you too hard
              
Come on back to me
                 
 But don't make me sorry

                                      
I'm a first timer  wishing I'd been someone else
                    
Seeing you by yourself
                   
Seeing you by yourself
