The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face Chords by Peggy Seeger

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The first time [C] I _ _ saw your _ _ [F] face _ _ _ I thought the sun rose in your [Am] eyes
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Am] And the moon and [Gm] the stars [C] were the gift you [F] gave
To the [Eb] dark and [Bb] empty _ [F] skies, my _ love _ [F] _ _
To the dark [C] and empty skies
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ The first [C] time I _ _ _ kissed your [F] mouth _ I _ _ felt the earth move in [Am] my head
_ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ The [Gm] trembling heart [C] of a captive _ [F] bird That was there [Eb] at my [Bb] command, [F] _ my love _
That _ _ was there [C] at my _ _ command
[F] _ _
The _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ first [Bb] time [C]
I _ _ _ lay with [F]
you _ [F] And _ _ felt your heart [Dm] beat over [Am] _ mine
I _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [D]
thought [Gm] our _ [C] joy _ _ would fill the _ _ [F] earth _ [Eb] And _ last till the end of [Bb] _
_ [F] time, my love _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Cm] And _ last _ till [C] the end of _ [F] time _ _ _ _ _ _
