[INTRO:] Am7 G/A
[VERSE 1:]
Am G Thank you for the promises we make Dm Am I know I can't complain, I think I did alright E F No failures are in sight, only now and then E Am D/F# E I'd like to reminisce, do you remember when
[VERSE 2:]
Am G Even if we're angels, we can't ask Dm Am To wander through the past, the future is our goal E F The night is black as coal, if I could pay the price E Am I'd like to love you once, I'd love to love you twice
[CHORUS:]
C Thanks, we cannot say enough D The road is sometimes rough Am But we can get along C D The going will get tough, but we won't be afraid E E-Cadd9-E7 Of the promises we made
[VERSE 3:]
Am G Thank you for the promises you keep Dm Am When I am fast asleep, to be where we belong E F Is all that I can ask, we can do it in the shade E Am G/A As long as I have you and the promises we made
[VERSE 4:]
Am G Thank you for the promises we break Dm Am You made a clean mistake, well that's what love's about E F No need to stand and shout, the truth is in your eyes E Am The answer lies within, no need to criticize
[CHORUS:]
C Thanks, for the promises at hand D The abuse that we must stand Am Is often heaven sent C D They may not pay the rent, you never can be sure E E-Cadd9-E7 When promises get bent
[VERSE 5:]
Am G Thank you for the promises that live Dm Am That is all that I can give, forever in my mind E F To leave the past behind and seal it with a kiss E Am G/A Am Forever in my soul, I will remember this
