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

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

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

Dm  Dm             C      G   C                                  Dm            Em7/Bb
The first time...ever I saw...your...face. your...face. Your...face.
C
Your...face
