Song: “The Promise” Artist: Anberlin(Originally by When In Rome) Album: Cities(2007) Ok, this is my first tab, so I chose a simple song. I did it in Word so give me a break. Pretty cool song though…… ** I recommend playing the G and F the way that is shown. It gives it more fullness. You can play them however you like but a G major won’t sound to spiffy in this song.** **Tuning is in Standard EADGBE**

Verse 1: C If you need a friend, Am don't look to a stranger, F You know in the end, C I'll always be there. C And when you're in doubt, Am and when you're in danger, F Take a look all around, C and I'll be there. Chorus: C I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise) Am I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise) F But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me, Am G I promise, I promise you I will. Verse 2: C When your day is through, Am and so is your temper, F You know what to do, C I'm gonna always be there. C Sometimes if I shout, Am it's not what's intended. F These words just come out, C with no gripe to bear. Chorus 2: C I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise) Am I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise) F But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me, Am G I promise, I promise you... C I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise) Am I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise) F And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me, Am G I promise, I promise you I will. Solo(Acoustic) I gotta tell ya, I need to tell ya, I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell yaaaa ...
