Anna: The window is open, so's that door
   F                        G
I didn't know they did that anymore
     C                   G             F      G
Who knew we owned eight thousand salad plates?
     C                      G
For years I've roamed these empty halls
   F                G        
Why have a ballroom with no balls?
C               G              F
Finally they're opening up the gates

Am                          Em
There'll be actual real live people
G                F
It'll be totally strange
     Bb                         G
But wow, am I so ready for this change

{chorus}
               C             F
'Cause for the first time in forever
             G                 C
There'll be music, there'll be light
        Am             F
For the first time in forever
          Bb                 G
I'll be dancing through the night

       Am                   Em
Don't know if I'm elated or gassy
        G                  F
But I'm somewhere in that zone
               C            F
Cause for the first time in forever
G          C
   I won't be alone

I can't wait to meet everyone! (gasp)
What if I meet... the one?

  C                G
Tonight imagine me gown and all
F                   G
Fetchingly draped against the wall
     C               G        F    G
The picture of sophisticated grace
        C               G
Ooh! I suddenly see him standing there
   F                  G
A beautiful stranger, tall and fair
   C                G              F
I wanna stuff some chocolate in my face
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/i/idina_menzel/first_time_in_forever_crd.html ]
              Am                Em
But then we laugh and talk all evening,
          G         F
Which is totally bizarre
Bb                                 G
Nothing like the life I've lead so far

         C            F
For the first time in forever
            G                   C
There'll be magic, there'll be fun
         Am            F
For the first time in forever
            Bb         G
I could be noticed by someone

      Am                  Em
And I know it is totally crazy
     G             F
To dream I'd find romance
            C              F
But for the first time in forever
G                      C
    At least I've got a chance

Am         Em        G
Conceal, don't feel, put on a show
      F                                F
Make one wrong move and everyone will know

               C
Elsa: But it's only for today 
           G
Anna: It's only for today
            F
Elsa: It's agony to wait
            G
Anna: It's agony to wait
        
       Am               Em           F
