Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][Eb][D][G]
The first [Em]time,

[Verse 1]
[G]eve[D]r I saw your fac[Bm]e
I thought the sun rose in [F#m]your eyes[G][D]
And [F#m]the moon and the stars
[D]Were the gifts you gave
To the [C]dark, and the endless [D]skies

[Verse 2]
My Love.
[G]
The first time,
[D]ever I kissed your [Bm]mouth
I felt the earth moving [F#m]in my [G]han[D]ds
Like the trem[F#m]bling heart
[D]Of a captive bird
That was [C]there, at [D]my command

[Verse 3]
[D]The [Fm]first time,
[Bbsus4]ever I lay with [Eb]you
And felt [Cm]your heart be close to [Gm]mine[Ab][Eb]
I [Gm]thought a joy [Eb]would fill the earth
And [Db]last, til the en[Eb]d of time
My Love.
nd [Db]last, til the end of [Eb]time

[Verse 4]
[Fm]The first time, ever I saw[Bbsus4][Eb][Bb]
Your [Ab]face[Bbsus4][Eb]

[Outro 1]
[Ab][E][Abm][E][Eb]
