First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Intro: [Dm][G]

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

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

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

[Dm] The [Dm] first [C] time ever I [G] [C] saw your face
[Dm] [Em7/Bb] your face, your face [C] your face
