The Gift
By Jim Brickman and Tom Douglas
Sung by Olivia Newton-John
Intro:
D - A - Bm - F# - G - D - G - A
Verse:
D A
Winter snow is falling down
Bm F#
Children laughing all around
G D
Lights are turning on
G A
like a fairy tale come true.
D A
Sitting by the fire we made
Bm F#
You're the answer when I prayed
G D
I would find someone
G A
and baby I found you.

Chorus:
D G Asus A
And all I want is to hold you forever
D G Asus A
All I need is you more every day
D F#
You saved my heart
Bm E7
from being broken apart
D
You gave your love away
Asus A
and I'm thankful every day
for the gift.
(Intro)
D A
Watching as you softly sleep
Bm F#
What I'd give if I could keep
G D
Just this moment
G A
if only time stood still.
D A
But the colors fade away
Bm F#
And the years will make us grey
G D
But baby in my eyes
G A
You'll still be beautiful.
(Chorus)
Intro (end on D chord)
*Then ending is a little shortened, since there's a piano solo during the end. No big deal.*
