First of May - The Bee Gees


   "First Of May"
   (Barry, Maurice, and Robin Gibb)

   D G D A

     D                         F#m/C#
   When I was small and Christmas trees were tall
       G                  D              A
   We used to love while others used to play
    D                             F#m/C#
   Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
    G                 D             A
   Someone else moved in from far away
       G                           D
   Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small
       Em                         D    D7
   And you don't ask the time of day
        G                         D
   But you and I, our love will never die
        Em              G        A      D   A
   But guess who'll cry   come First of May

        D                         F#m/C#
The apple tree that grew for you and me
                 G                  D              A
   I watched the apples falling one by one
          D                             F#m/C#
And I recall the moment of them all
            G                  D                  A
   The day I kissed your cheek and you were gone
       G                           D
   Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small
       Em                         D    D7
   And you don't ask the time of day
        G                         D
   But you and I, our love will never die
        Em              G        A      D   A
   But guess who'll cry   come First of May

           D                         F#m/C#
   When I was small and Christmas trees were tall
   G               D            A
   Do-do-do-do-do  do-do-do  do-do

    (acapella):
   Don't ask me why but time has passed us by
   Someone else moved in from far away
