The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

	  		INtro - C - Dm - G 
 
 
 
(verse 1) 
     Dm       G        C 
The first time ever I saw your face,  
Am7                   Em7       F 
I thought the sun rose in your eyes, 
C                     G           G 
And the moon and stars were the 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          F 
I felt the earth move through my hands, 
C                       G              C 
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird 
           Bb 
That was there at my command, 
 
 
 
(verse 3) 
         Dm        G       C 
And the first time ever I lay 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                     C   Dm - G - C    
The first time ever I saw your,    face,
