Lyrics

Oh, so (Gm7)long

for this (Am7)night I (D7sus)prayed

that a (Gm7)star

would guide (Am7)you my (D7sus)way

to share (Gm7)with

me this (Am7)spe cial (D7sus)day

where a (Gm7)rib bon’s in the (Bb)sky for our (Ebmaj7)love.

If al (Gm7)lowed,

may I (Am7)touch your (D7sus)hand

and if (Gm7)pleased

may I (Am7)once a (D7sus)gain

so that (Gm7)you

too will (Am7)un der (D7sus)stand

there’s a (Gm7)rib bon’s in the (Bb)sky for our (Ebmaj7)love.

If al (Gm7)rib bon in the (Bb)sky for our (Ebmaj7)love.

Doo.

Doo

doo.

This is (Gm7)not

a co (Am7)in ci (D7sus)dence,

and far (Gm7)more

than a (Am7)luck y (D7sus)chance,

but what (Gm7)is

that was (Am7)al ways (D7sus)meant

is our (Gm7)rib bon in the (Bb)sky for our (C7sus)love;

(D7sus)love we can’t lose,

with God (Bm7)on our (E7sus)side.

We’ll find (Am7)strength

in each (Bm7)tear we (E7sus)cry.

From now (Am7)on

it will be (Bm7)you and (E7sus)I

and our (Am7)rib bon in the (C)sky,

(B)rib bon in the (E)sky,

a (Am7)rib bon in the (C)sky for our (Am7)love.

There’s a (Am7)rib bon in the (C)sky for our (G)love.
