Tone: [C]
The [Dm]first time,[G]time, ever I [C]saw your face
I [Am]thought the sun[Em] rose in you[C]r e[F]yes
And the [G]moon and the [C]stars
Were the gifts you [G]gave
To the [Bb]dark, and the endless s[C]sky
My love
To the [Bb]dark, and the endless s[C]skys
And the [Dm]first time,[G]time, ever I [C]kissed your mouth
I [Am]felt the earth[Em] move in m[C]y h[F]ands
Like the [G]trembling [C]heart
Of a captive [G]bird
That was [Bb]there, at m[C]my command
My love
That was [Bb]there, at m[C]my command
My love
And the [Dm]first time,[G]time, ever I [C]lay with you
I [Am]felt your heart[Em] so close t[C]o m[F]ine
And I [G]knew our [C]joy
Would fill the [G]earth
And [Bb]last, till the end of t[C]time
My love
And it would [Bb]last, till the end of t[C]time
My love
The [Dm]first time, ever I [C]sa[G]saw your [C]face
Your [G]face
Your [C]fac[F]face
[G]Your [F]face
