Lyrics

Oh, so (Ebm7)long

for this (Fm7)night I (Bb7sus)prayed

that a (Ebm7)star

would guide (Fm7)you my (Bb7sus)way

to share (Ebm7)with

me this (Fm7)spe cial (Bb7sus)day

where a (Ebm11)rib (Ebm)bon’s in (Eb)the (Gb)sky for our (Cbmaj7)love.

If al (Ebm7)lowed,

may I (Fm7)touch your (Bb7sus)hand;

and if (Ebm7)pleased,

may I (Fm7)once a (Bb7sus)gain,

so that (Ebm7)you

too will (Fm7)un der (Bb7sus)stand

there’s a (Ebm11)rib (Ebm)bon’s in (Eb)the (Gb)sky for our (Cbmaj7)love.

If al (Ebm11)rib (Ebm)bon in (Eb)the (Gb)sky for our (Db)love.

Doo

doo doo

doo doo

doo

doo.

This is (Em7)not

a co (F#m7)in ci (B7sus)dence,

and far (Em7)more

than a (F#m7)luck y (B7sus)chance,

but what (Em7)is

that was (F#m7)al ways (B7sus)meant

is our (Em11)rib (Em)bon in the (G)sky for our love;

(Ab)love we can’t lose,

with God (Gm7)on our (C7sus)side.

We’ll find (Fm7)strength

in each (Gm7)tear we (C7sus)cry.

From now (Fm7)on

it will be (Gm7)you and (C7sus)I

and our (Fm11)rib (Fm7)bon in (F)the (Ab)sky,

(G)rib bon in the (C9)sky,

a (Fm11)rib (Fm7)bon in (F)the (Ab)sky for our (Fm7)love.

(Fm6)Ooh,

(Gm7)ooh

(C7sus)ooh.

Doo doo

ooh

doo (Fm11)doo (Fm7)doo.

There’s a (Fm11)rib (Fm)bon in (F)the (Ab)sky for our (Eb)love.
