Bellamy Brothers – Makin Promises (Guitar)

      G             Bm     C                D           G  Bm  C  D
I was standing on a corner watching all the people walk by

     G             Bm              C           D                G   Bm  C  D
This woman child approached me her hemline was reaching for the sky

    Em                      C
She knew what she was doing just as well as me

    Em                             C        D
She knew that I was tempted by her physicality

      G             Bm            C          D              G    Bm  C  D
But I kept my wits about me I was willing to look but not believe

          C           Am             D                        G
Cause her body made a promise that I knew her heart could not keep

   G              Bm   C                D               G    Bm  C  D
As she paraded by me a limousine pulled right up to the curb

  G                  Bm               C
A well dressed older man just stepped out

               D              G    Bm  C  D
And kissed her lips without a word

   Em                                   C
He wrapped his arms around her and they made some secret plans

          Em                      C             D
But I was close enough to see the ring upon his hand

      G                 Bm              C           D             G     Bm  C  D
And I took his wave goodbye just like a child as he rode down the street

               C           Am      D                          G   Bm  C  D
But I knew his body made a promise   that his heart could not keep

  D                           C                   G
A part of me just wanted to applaud their passing play

      D                                C              D             C
But I closed my eyes and said a prayer then I walked away I walked away

  G                 Bm               C         D             G   Bm  C  D
I came home to this little old brick house you met me at the door

    G                Bm             C             D             G    Bm  C  D
You told me that you loved me and I understood it better than before

  Em                                  C
I took you in my arms and thanked the good Lord up above

    Em                                C        D
For showing me the difference between lust and love

      G                Bm           C     D             G     Bm  C  D
And tonight when we’re lying in our bed before we go to sleep

    C                Am       D                     G    Bm  C  D
Our bodies will make promises   that our hearts can keep

        C                Am       D          N.C.
Yes our bodies will make promises   that our hearts can keep
