Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Intro: A Bm G D

Verse:
                 A
   I was all of seventeen
      Bm           G
Going bad boy crazy
D                 A
   Podunk county beauty queen
             Bm                 G
And not your auburn-headed baby..
D                    A                  Bm
   You kicked me out, I packed my bags...
                  G                D
Hair dyed dollar store jet black
             A
You played "Jesus Take The Wheel"
      Bm                G
Every day ʼtil I came back

Chorus:
                F#m                    G
I learned, sometimes, your first donʼt last
              F#m                   G
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
             F#m              G
I learned to live with my regrets
             G
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes

A Bm G D

Verse:
              A
I was all of twenty-three
        Bm                G
Didnʼt know what I didnʼt know
D                         A
   They swore Iʼd be the next big thing
        Bm                    G
But the room was full of smoke
D                   A
   Had to watch my dream fall through
Bm                 G
   I gave myself a day or two
D                   A
   And the same champagne they bought me
    Bm                   G
I popped it when they dropped me

Chorus:
                F#m                    G
I learned, sometimes, your first donʼt last
              F#m                   G
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
             F#m              G
I learned to live with my regrets
             G
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes

F#m G F#m G

Verse:
            A
I remember thirteen
     Bm                G   D
Tip toes in the deep end...
                  A
And the smell of Marlboro Reds
       Bm             G
Every once in a weekend

Chorus:
                F#m                    G
I learned, sometimes, your first donʼt last
              F#m                   G
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
             F#m              G
I learned to live with my regrets
             G
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes
