First Time in a Long Time

Written by Deric Ruttan/Jimmy Rankin Lately I've been losin' sleep Stayin' up with your memory All my friends say, "Hey, we're a little concerned" But I got my wine and I got my smoke And every letter you ever wrote Tonight I'll light one up, let it burn Chorus: Cause I feel all right for the first time In a long time And I see the light now that I'm walkin' In the sunshine I was singin' my song and it goes Shan na na na na na na I feel all right for the first time In a long time This morning I took a look outside And all the people passin' by Nobody noticed you were gone Put on my shoes, a different man Went to the docks where my ship came in I watched that tide rollin' on and on And on and on and on Repeat Chorus: And I feel all right for the first time In a long time And I see the light now that I'm walkin' In the sunshine I was singin' my song and it goes Shan na na na na na na I feel all right for the first time In a long time Guitar solo/steel solo It took a while for me to see What everybody knew but me And I don't care where you are tonight (Cause I feel all right) Repeat Chorus: Cause I feel all right for the first time In a long time And I see the light now that I'm walkin' In the sunshine I was singin' my song and it goes Shan na na na na na na I feel all right for the first time In a long time I feel alright shan na na na na na na I see the light shan na na na na na na
