The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

(Arrangement as recorded by Roberta Flack)

C Dm G7 C E7 Am
The first time... ever I saw your face,
Am Dm Am Em Dm
I thought the sun... rose in your eyes...
G7 F C
And the moon and the stars... were the gifts you gave...
F Bb C
To the night... and the empty skies, my love...
F Bb C
To the night... and the empty skies.

C Dm G7 C E7 Am
The first time... ever I kissed your mouth.
Am Dm Am Em Dm
I felt the earth turn... in my hand...
G7 F C
Like the trembling heart... of a captive bird...
F Bb C
That was there... at my command, my love.
F Bb C
That was there... at my command.

C Dm G7 C E7 Am
The first time... ever I lay with you.
Am Dm Am Em Dm
And felt your heart beat... close to mine.
G7 F C
I thought our joy... would fill the earth.
F Bb C
And would last... 'til the end of time, my love.
F Bb C
And would last... 'til the end of time.

C Dm G7 C E7 Am
The first time... ever I saw your face,
Am Dm Am Em Dm
I thought the sun rose... in your eyes,
G7 F C
And the moon and the stars... were the gifts you gave
F Bb C
To the night... and the empty skies, my love...
F Bb C
To the night... and the empty skies.

C Dm G7 C F
The first time... ever I saw your face...
Bb C
Your face... your face... your face.
