Verse
E A E
Got me a ribbon, bright blue ribbon for my hair
B
made me a promise, now I know he didn’t care
E A E
Touched by his first kiss, fooled by his first song
B E
The way he led me along with my ribbons undone
[Chorus]
E A E
Ribbons of blue now remind me of you
B
Ribbons of red are the way that my heart bled
E A E
Memories so clear are still ringing in my ears
B E
So I wanna send to you my old ribbons of blue
[Bridge]
A G E
Sad for me baby so bad for me baby ooh-o-hoo
A G E
Hard on me baby so far from me baby ooh-o-hoo
[Chorus]
E A E
Ribbons of blue now remind me of you
B
Ribbons of red are the way that my heart bled
E A E
Memories so clear are still ringing in my ears
B E
So I wanna send to you my old ribbons of blue
(Capo 4)
