[Bb]

[Bb]
[Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
Ribbon of darkness [F] over me, since my true love [Bb] walked out the door.
Tears I never [Eb] had before,
[Bb] [F] ribbon of darkness [Bb] over me.
Clouds are gathering [F] over my head, they chill the day and [Bb] hide the sun.
Enshroud the night when [Eb] day is done, [Bb] ribbon of [F] darkness [Bb] over me.
[F] Rain is falling [Bb] on the meadow,
[F] where once my love and [Bb] I did lie.
[F] Now he is gone [Bb] from the meadow,
[Cm] my love,
[F] goodbye.
[Cm] [Bb] Ribbon of darkness [F] over me, where once the world was [Bb] young as spring.
Where flowers did bloom and [Eb] birds would sing, [Bb] ribbon of [F] darkness [Bb] over me.
[F]
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Gm] [F] In this cold [Bb] room lying, [F] don't want to see no [Bb] one but you.
[F] Lord I wish I [Bb] could be dying [Cm]
too.
How
[Bb] I wish your [F] heart could see, how mine just aches and breaks [Bb] all day.
Come [Fm] on back and [Eb] take away,
[Bb] ribbon [F] of darkness [Bb] over me.
[Eb]
[Bb] [C] Ribbon of [Bb] darkness over me.
[Eb] [Bb]
