[Verse 1]

C#          F#       C#
Gently your eyes met mine
D#m     G#        C#
Tender, trusting, true
C#          F#        C#
Gently your hand took mine
D#m         G#          C#
Thrilled me through and through


[Chorus]

F#            C#
Gently, oh so gently
D#m    G#     C#
Gentle as the dawn
F#            C#
Gently, oh so gently
D#m      G#       C#    A
Our true love was born


[Verse 2]

D           G           D
Gently your lips kissed mine
Em    A        D
As we strolled along
D           G             D
Gently your heart touched mine
Em        A        D
Young and warm and strong


[Chorus]

G             D
Gently, oh so gently
Em     A      D
Gentle as the dawn
G             D
Gently, oh so gently
Em       A        D    Bb
Our true love was born


[Verse 3]

Eb         Ab      Eb
Gently the hour is near
Fm              Bb      Eb
When true loves have to part
Eb           Ab    Eb
Gently we'll meet again
Fm       Bb         Eb
One more kiss, sweetheart


[Chorus]

Ab            Eb
Gently, oh so gently
Fm     Bb     Eb
Gentle as the dawn
Ab            Eb
Gently, oh so gently
Fm       Bb       Eb
Our true love was born
Fm       Bb       Eb
Our true love was born
