    Bm         E       AThe first time, ever I saw your face
  F#m             C#m          A  DI thought the sun rose in your eyes
        E            AAnd the moon and the stars
                   EWere the gifts you gave
       G                     ATo the dark, and the endless sky

My love
       G                     ATo the dark, and the endless skys

        Bm         E       AAnd the first time, ever I kissed your mouth
  F#m            C#m        A  DI felt the earth move in my hands
         E         ALike the trembling heart
             EOf a captive bird
         G         AThat was there, at my command

My love
         G         AThat was there, at my command

My love

        Bm         E       AAnd the first time, ever I lay with you
  F#m             C#m         A  DI felt your heart so close to mine
      E        AAnd I knew our joy
               EWould fill the earth
    G                     AAnd last, till the end of time

My love

             G                     AAnd it would last, till the end of time

My love

    Bm                 A E      AThe first time, ever I saw your face

     EYour face
     A  DYour face
E    DYour face
