The Gift
Jim Brickman and Olivia Newton-John

Intro:  Bb F Gm Eb Cm F
		
 
Bb	         F		
Winter snow is falling down 
Gm	          Bb    Eb
Children laughing all around 
	           Bb
Lights are turning on
       Cm              F
Like a fairy tale come true.

Bb	         F	
Sitting by the fire we made 
Gm	          Bb     Eb
You're the answer when I prayed 
	    Bb 
I would find someone 
    Cm           F
And baby I found you.

Chorus:
          Bb	     Eb          F
And all I want is to hold you forever 
      Bb	  Eb         F
All I need is you more every day 
Bb            Bm7
You saved my heart 
           Gm	     C7
From being broken apart
	       Bb
You gave your love away 
                  F
And I'm thankful every day for the gift.

(Repeat Intro)

F		C
Watching as you softly sleep 
Dm		C      Bb
What I'd give if I could keep 
          F
Just this moment 
     G                C
If only time stood still.	

F             C      Dm
But the colors fade away 
	           F C     Bb
And the years will make us grey 
               F
But baby in my eyes 
        G              C
You'll still be beautiful.

Chorus:
          F	     Bb          C
And all I want is to hold you forever 
      F	          Bb         C       
All I need is you more every day 
F            F#m7
You saved my heart 
           Dm     G7
From being broken apart
	       F
You gave your love away 
                  C                F
And I'm thankful every day for the gift.
