#1.
E MajorE            BB
Ribbon of darkness over me..since my true love
        E MajorE
walked out the door.
          A augmentedA   E MajorE     BB
Tears I never had before..ribbon of darkness over
E MajorE
me.

#2.
E MajorE              BB
Clouds are gathering over my head..that kill the
         E MajorE
day and hide the sun.
   A augmentedA     E MajorE         A augmentedA   E MajorE
That shroud the night when day is done..ribbon of
BB       E MajorE
darkness over me.

BRIDGE:

Rain is falling on the meadow..where once my love
     E MajorE
and I did lie.
GbmGbm     BB       E MajorE    GbmGbm     BB
Now, she is gone from the meadow..my love, goodbye.

#3.
E MajorE            BB  GbmGbm      BB
Ribbon of darkness over me, where once the world was
     E MajorE
young as spring.
E MajorE                    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Where flowers did bloom and birds would sing..ribbon
  BB       E MajorE
of darkness over me.

In this cold room lying..don't want to see no one but
E MajorE
you.

Lord, I wish I could be dying..to forget you.

#4.
E MajorE              BB
How I wish your heart could see, how mine just takes
        E MajorE
and breaks all day.

Come on back and take away..ribbon of darkness over me.
