C                                    Am                                   F
She was crying out my name, Standing in the driveway
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
C                        Am                       F
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face
It was back in October when I said it’s over and hid
Am           G                     F
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction

Am            G                       F
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription
Can hear her screamig' no
C          G                           
No baby don't, you making my heart hurt

Am
Don’t say those words

F                      G
Take it back, you know you don't mean that

C                                      G
You swore when I wore your ring
It meant forever
Am                  G                            F
I've got it on baby, how can you say I lost it
Oh, you promised
C                                              Am                    F
Started crying while I was sleeping, waking up and reaching out
To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
C                                         Am                                 F
So I gathered up some pictures, i said i had somethin to give her
I let her read a letter, i had a written her to give her on the day we tied the knot
Am               G
I saw the tears

              F
I saw them fall as she read the part of my growing old

Am                  G              F                       
I heard her words, i heard her say it'll never work
And hit my knees and cried
C         G
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt

Am
Don’t say those words

F
Take it back, you know you dont mean it

C                                        G
You swore when you wore my ring
It meant forever
   Am                     G                               F
You’ve got it on baby, How can you say you lost it

                  Am
Yeah and you promised

Am
We were different people then

G
Look at all the hateful things we’ve said

F
And I’m just as guilty,but girl you that's no wat to be

Am
Take it easy baby I’m still broken

G
Memories enough to tear me wide open

F
When you see me girl you curse my name
Makes me wanna say no
C         G
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt

Am
Don’t say those words

F                      G
Take it back, you know you dont mean it

C                                        G
You swore when you wore my ring
We said forever
Am                     G                                 F
But You took it off baby, safet ot say we're though

Am                                 G                           F
But no matter what you do you know i'll always love you
Hell I have to Cause I Promised
