The Gift Fingerstyle Guitar Tabs

Guitar Arrangement: The Gift Fingerstyle Tabs

Artist: Jim Brickman

“The Gift” by Jim Brickman stands as an eternal love ballad that resonates through its soulful melody and deep emotional impact. This piano ballad became well-loved for use at weddings and anniversaries and during special occasions. When the melody becomes a solo fingerstyle guitar performance it gains a new dimension of expression while it maintains its original emotional warmth.

The song benefits from the G Major key which adds to its bright and resonant sound.The selected key creates seamless integration of melody with harmony producing both emotional depth and easy listening. The musical arrangement combines flowing arpeggios with sustained bass notes to reflect Brickman’s piano style through the guitar’s natural resonance and sustain.

This piece works best with fingerstyle guitar because it enables simultaneous performance of the melody and chords. This arrangement maintains a clear structure which allows the lead line to stay both expressive and lyrical. The harmonic framework reinforces the melody to generate a deep and lush auditory experience.The final result is a solo guitar composition that preserves the song’s emotional depth along with delivering a satisfying performance experience.

Guitarists who enjoy romantic instrumental pieces will find this arrangement ideal for adding a heartfelt work to their repertoire. The piece communicates The Gift’s beauty through the guitar strings whether played for personal pleasure or during special events.

Song Lyrics:

Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on
Like a fairy tale come true
Sitting by the fire we made
You’re the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And baby I found you

All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I’m thankful every day
For the gift

Watching as you softly sleep
What I’d give if I could keep
Just this moment

If only time stood still
But the colors fade away
And the years will make us grey
But baby in my eyes
You’ll still be beautiful

All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I’m thankful every day
For the gift

All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
I can’t find the words to say
That I’m thankful every day
For the gift
