THE FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE ROBERTA FLACK (EWAN McCOLL) Dm G C The first time ever I saw your face Am Em F I thought the sun rose in your eyes C And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave Bb C To the dark and the empty skies The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hand, Like a trembling heart of a captive bird, That was there at my birth. And the first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine And I knew our joy would fill the earth And last till the end of time ( my love ) ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
