First of May

When (D)I was small and Christmas (F#m)trees were tall,

we (G)used to love while (D)others used to (A)play.

Don't (D)ask me why, but time has (F#m)passed us by;

the (G)someone else moved (D)in from far (A)away.

Now (G)we are tall and Christmas (D)trees are small,

and (Em7)you don't ask the time of (D)day.

(D7)But (G)you and I, our love will (D)never die,

but (Em7)guess who'll cry (G)come first of (D)May.

(A)The (D)apple tree that grew for (F#m)you and me,

I (G)watched the apples (D)falling one by (A)one.

And (D)I recall the moment (F#m)of them all,

the (G)day I kissed your (D)cheek and you were (A)gone.

Now (G)we are tall and Christmas (D)trees are small,

and (Em7)you don't ask the time of (D)day.

(D7)But (G)you and I, our love will (D)never die,

but (Em7)guess who'll cry (G)come first of (D)May.

(A)The (D)May.
