(Intro.)
|(Am) / / / |(C) / / / |(Dm) / / / |(Am) / / / |
 
(Verse 1)
(Am) Type A to a T (C)
Does won-(Dm)ders for my scattered brain (Am)
(Am) And it's such a relief (C)
When "I'm fine" (Dm) means "I'm fine" and it ain't (Am) just a mind game
You're (Am)hard on yourself, only see (C) imperfections
But dar-(Dm)ling, even mirrors can lie (Am)
So (Am)look in my eyes, let me change (C) your perspective
Show (Dm) you every reason why (Am) - - -

(Chorus)
I (F) fell in love with a first (C) born daughter
A fresh (Am) taste of water-(G)melon in the summer
'Cause she (F) loves speaking her mind, (C) puts her love on the line (Am)
No, she ain't the kind (G) to make me wonder 'bout
(F)How my life would look without her, (C)once I found her, won't let her go
(Am) oh, oh, oh (G)
Some (F) might say I'm a lamb (C) to the slaughter
But I (Am) fell hard for a first (G) born daughter (F) / / / (C) / / / (Am) / / / (G) / / /

(Verse 2)
(Am) So don't rearrange (C)
The way (Dm) that you are 'cause there's no-(Am)thing that I'd change
(Am) You're all that you need (C)
But you want (Dm) what you want and I'm lucky (Am) you want me

(Chorus)
I (F) fell in love with a first (C) born daughter
A fresh (Am) taste of water-(G)melon in the summer
'Cause she (F) loves speaking her mind, (C) puts her love on the line (Am)
No, she ain't the kind (G) to make me wonder 'bout
(F)How my life would look without her, (C)once I found her, won't let her go, (Am) oh oh (G)
Some (F) might say I'm a lamb (C) to the slaughter
But I (Am) fell hard for a first (G) born daughter (F) / / / (C) / / / (Am) / / / (G) /

(Bridge)
Yeah, and (F)maybe there's a day with an-(C)other on the way
That (Am)gets your middle name and (G)this whole heart of mine
(F)Hoping she's your spitting image, (C)it'll look a little different
(Am)But it won't be the first (G) time

(Out-Chorus)
I (F) fell in love with a first (C) born daughter
A fresh (Am) taste of water-(G)melon in the summer
'Cause she (F) loves speaking her mind (C)
Puts her love on the line, (Am) no, she ain't the kind (G) to make me wonder 'bout
(F)How my life would look without her
(C)Once I found her, won't let her go, (Am) oh oh (G)
Some (F) might say I'm a lamb (C) to the slaughter
But I (Am) fell hard for a first (G) born daughter (F) (C)
Yeah, I (Am) fell hard for a first (G) born daughter (F) - - - - -
