F#m E
It's the crack of noon
A Dmaj7 Bm C#m7
And I sit here watching you sleeping
F#m E A Dmaj7 Bm C#
I only wish that I could remember your name
F# E D
But I know it's written on a matchbook somewhere
F# E D
So maybe I'll find it, and maybe you'll care
F# E D
Or maybe you'll fix me with one of those stares
D E
And put up a fight
Chorus
A E/A A
So when you awake I admit I'm relieved
F#m E/D D
As you flash me a smile like a diamond
A E/A A
And just for a moment I almost believe
D E D E D E
In love at first light
Verse 2
F#m E A Dmaj7 Bm C#m7
I propose a breakfast of coffee and aspirin
F#m E A Dmaj7 Bm C#
You laugh, suggesting a raw egg or two
F# E D
But oh was it ever so good being bad
F# E D
Like a couple of vampires, deliciously mad
F# E D
Saying this is the best blood that we've ever had
D E
So we drank it all night
Chorus
A E/A A
And if we untangle the webs that we weave
F#m E/D D
Then maybe there's room for more laughter
A E/A A
'Cause just for a moment I almost believe
D E D E D E
In love at first light

Verse 3
F#m E
Feeling cold
A Dmaj7 Bm C#m7
You put a robe round my shoulders
F#m E A Dmaj7 Bm C#
Smile and pull one of your favourite books from my shelf
F# E D
Let's open the curtains and let out the dark
F# E D
And if the sun doesn't melt us and there's still a spark
F# E D
And we do something human like walk in the park
D E
The spark could ignite
Chorus
A E/A A
So maybe I'm moonstruck, or maybe naive
F#m E/D D
But I know there's a God and a Devil
A E/A A
So maybe I'm crazy enough to believe
D E D E
In love at first light
Outro
D E
Repeat and fade
