My First Love

Intro G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B x2

G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
Tonight as I stand gazing out my window
Am C d
A big Apache moon flies overhead
G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
My husband and new born baby
Am C D
Lie asleep in their downy beds

C D g Em
But my heart's out there in the moonlight,
C D G Em
my soul is adrift on the breeze
C D G Em
I fear my husband might know
Am C D D7
he wasn't the first love for me

c d g em
My first love, my true love, so strong and so wild
c d g em
A tempest, a whirlwind and I just a child
c d g em
As easy as morning he walked in my soul
c d C G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
So gentle and kind, my young heart he stole

Dsus/F C9 G5/B

G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
Now he watches for me from the meadow
Am C D D7
And sometimes I slip out in the night
G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
While my husband and child lie sleeping
Am C D D7
My first love and I reunite

C D G Em
In the moonlight we'll stroll in the meadow
C D G Em
sometimes we merely embrace
C D G Em
I tell him my heart while he plays with my hair
Am C D D7
and he presses his cheek to my face

C D G Em
My first love, my true love, so strong and so wild
C D G Em
A tempest, a whirlwind and I just a child
C D G Em
As easy as morning he walked in my soul
C D C G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
So gentle and kind, my young heart he stole

Dsus/F C9 G5/B

G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
Now from the darkness my husband whispers,
Am C D D7
as his hand gently touches my arm
G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
I know that he is your first love
Am C D D7
and you'll never escape his charm

C D G Em
Go and be with him in the moonlight
C D G Em
then return on the sweet morning air
C D G Em
That you'll one day love me like you love that Old Horse
Am C D D7
Is your husbands only prayer.

C D G Em
My first love, my true love, so strong and so wild
C D G Em
A tempest, a whirlwind and I just a child
C D G Em
As easy as morning he walked in my soul
C D C G5/B Dsus/F C9 G5/B
So gentle and kind, my young heart he stole
