[EURYDICE]
E D [tab]E D You said the rivers and the trees Bm D Would fill our pockets and our plates Bm D Promises you made E D You said the birds would blanket us E D You said the world was generous Bm D And wouldn't turn its back on us
[Interlude]
Bm D
Bm The river froze A The trees were bare Bm A And all the birds they disappeared Bm C So me too I flew away C D From promises you made
[ORPHEUS]
E D Promises you made to me E D You said that you would stay with me Bm D Whatever weather came our way Bm D Promises you made Bm A That we would walk, side by side Bm A Through all the seasons of our lives Bm C 'Neath any sky, down any road C D Any way the wind blows
[Interlude]
D A D A Bm G C D
D A I have no ring for your finger D A I have no banquet table laid Bm G I have no bed of feathers Bm A Whatever promises I've made D A Can't promise you fair sky above D A Can't promise you kind road below Bm C But I'll walk with you, my love C D Any way the wind blows
[EURYDICE]
D A I don't need gold, don't need silver D A Just bread when I'm hungry, fire when I'm cold Bm G Don't need a ring for my finger Bm A Just need a steady hand to hold D A Don't promise me fair sky above D A Don't promise me kind road below Bm C Just walk with me, my love C E Any way the wind blows
[ORPHEUS]
E G I don't know where this road will end E G But I'll walk with you into the wind
[BOTH]
D A I can't promise you fair sky above D A Can't promise you kind road below Bm C But I'll walk with you, my love C D Any way the wind blows
