The first cut is the deepest

The First Cut Is The Deepest- Cat Stevens

[Chorus]

G D C Dsus4 G D C D

…The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know the first cut is the deepest,

G D C D

'Cause when it comes to being lucky, she's cursed,

G C D C

When it comes to loving me, she's worsed,

G D C Dsus4

But when it comes to being loved, she's first, that's how I know

G D C Dsus4 G D C

The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know the first cut is the deepest

[Verse 2]

G D C D

I still want you by my side,

G C D C

Just to help me dry the tears that I cried,

G D C

And I'm sure gonna give you a try,

D G D C

And, if you want, I'll try to love a-gain,

D G C D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D

Baby, I'll try to love a-gain, but I know…

[Chorus]

G D C Dsus4 G D C D

…The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know the first cut is the deepest,

'Cause when it comes to being lucky, she's cursed,

G C D C

When it comes to loving me, she's worsed,

G D C Dsus4

But when it comes to being loved, she's first, that's how I know

The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know the first cut is the deepest
