Intro: / D Dsus4-D-Dsus4 A - / /
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And he's taken just all that I had
But if you want I'll try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know
/ D A G A / D G A G / D A G A / / D G Asus4 A /
{Refrain}
The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know the first cut is the deepest
When it comes to being lucky he's cursed
And when it comes to loving me he's worst
/ D A G A / / / D G Asus4 A /
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
I'm sure gonna to give you a try
And if you want I'll try to love again, try
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know, oh
{Refrain}
{Repeat second verse}
{Refrain}
Oh, the first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest, try to love again
/ D A G A / D A G A D - /
