My Father is a rich man, He wears a rich man's cloak

Gave me the keys to His kingdom coming, gave me a cup of gold

He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see."

But I left by the back door, and I threw away the key

And I threw away the key, yeah I threw away the key
C#m A
Yeah I threw away the key
E A E
For the first time I feel love

I just call and he comes around
But for the first time I feel love

My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold

He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key...

For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love
