G C/G G C/G
when i first met your mother
G C/G G
i was playing in a bar
C G
she walked in , with my girlfriend
D/F#
my foolish girlfriend brought her there
G C/G G C/G
she looked so pretty and dangerous
G C/G G
as she brushed back her hair
C G D/F# G
and i was not the only one taking notice in that bar
C D G
when i first met your ma

when i first kissed your mother
i was single once again
we walked through fitzroy gardens ,
there she took my hand
we could not stop our kissing
then she whispered in my ear
soon you’ll get to know me
so lets not go too far
when i first met your ma

C D G
love like a bird flies away
C D G C
you’ll find out the only way
D G C/G G C/G G
love like a bird flies away

when we first lay together ,
inside her fathers house
we tried so to be quiet
as we held each other close ,
and then her dad came pounding
kicked me out of there
i walked two miles in melbourne rain
i could have walked ten more
when i first loved your ma

love like a bird flies away
you’ll find out the only way
love like a bird flies away .
