7 8 -8 -6 -7 -8 7 I peeked in to say goodnight 6 -6 7 -7 -5 -6 6 6 and then I heard my child in prayer. 7 8 -8 -6 -7 -8 7 6 "And for me, some scarlet ribbons, -6 7 -7 -5 -6 6 6 scarlet ribbons for my hair." 7 7 -8 -8 8 8 9 -9 Through the night my heart was aching -6 -6 -7 -7 7 7 8 -8 just before the dawn was breaking. 7 8 -8 -6 -7 -8 7 I peeked in and on her bed 6 -6 7-7 -5 -6 6 6 in gay profusion lying there-- 7 8 -8 -6 -7 -8 7 6 Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons, -6 7 -7 -5 -6 6 6 scarlet ribbons for her hair. Verse 2 All the stores were closed and shuttered; all the streets were dark and bare. In our town no scarlet ribbons, not one ribbon for her hair. If I live to be one hundred, I will never know from where, Came those lovely scarlet ribbons, scarlet ribbons -66 7-7 7 for her hair.
