A Ribbon And A Rose(Chords)

	        


Intro: D A7 D 

D                                     G 
In the mail that came today, was the rose from your bouquet 
       D                               A7 
And a note said your were banded yesterday 
       D                         G 
Tied around the rose I found, a ribbon from your gown 
        D            A7              D 
Just a ribbon and a rose from your bouquet 

 
    G                           D 
A ribbon and a rose I'll keep forever 
                                         A7 
And before the love between us will be closed 
           D                            G 
I'll send back each little note every precious word you wrote 
          D                A7              D 
But I'll always keep your ribbon and your rose

D                                   G 
When old memories I recall and the teardrops are to fall 
       D                                A7 
I'll remember all the things we used to do 
            D                          G 
Then your ribbon I'll unfold and your faded rose I'll hold 
          D             A7                  D 
And I'll live again in hopes that I'll hold you
