A                                       B                      D
Today bright Phoebus she smiled down on me for the very first time;
B                   D                 A
For the very first time she smiled on me.
A                                       B                      D
Today bright Phoebus she smiled down on me for the very first time;
B                   D                 A
For the very first time she smiled on me.


          F#m            B              F#m                B
No more clouds, no more rain, gone the clouds, she smiled again.
A                                       B                      D
Today bright Phoebus she smiled down on me for the very first time;
B                   D                 A
For the very first time she smiled on me.


A                                          B                    D
This morning cockerel crowed and he woke me for the very first time;
B                   D                 A
For the very first time he crowed for me.
A                                            B                      D
He flapped his wings and he strut around for me for the very first time;
B                   D                 A
For the very first time he crowed for me.


          F#m            B              F#m                 B
No more clouds, no more rain, gone the clouds, she smiled again.
A                                       B                      D
Today bright Phoebus she smiled down on me for the very first time;
B                   D                                                   A
For the very first time and she smiled and she smiled and she smiled on me.
