The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Dm  G


[Verse 1]
    Dm         G        C
The first time...ever I saw your 
face,
Am7                    Em7       
I thought the sun rose...in your 
F
eyes.
C                       G         
 And the moon and stars...were the 
 C
gifts you gave,
        Bb                    C
To the dark...and the endless sky, 
my love.

[Verse 2]
        Dm         G        C
And the first time...ever I kissed 
your mouth,
Am7                   Em7         
I felt the earth move...through my 
 F
hands.
C                         G      
 Like the trembling heart...of a 
        C
captive bird
Bb                        C
That was there...at my command, my 
love

[Verse 3]
        Dm         G        C
And the first time...ever I laid 
with you,
Am7               Em7           
I felt your heart...so close to 
F
mine.
      C            G       C
And I know our joy...would fill the 
earth,
    Bb                     C
And last...till the end of time, my 
love.
