Song: You Promised Tab
D Bm G A
D Bm G
She was crying out my name, Standing in the driveway
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
D Bm G
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face
It was back in October when I said it’s over and hid
Bm A G
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction
Bm A G
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription
Can hear her screamig' no
D A
No baby don't, you making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G A
Take it back, you know you don't mean that
D A
You swore when I wore your ring
It meant forever
Bm A G
I've got it on baby, how can you say I lost it
Oh, you promised
D Bm G
Started crying while I was sleeping, waking up and reaching out
To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
D Bm G
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
Bm A
I saw the tears
G
I saw them fall as she read the part of my growing old
Bm A G
I heard her words, i heard her say it'll never work
And hit my knees and cried
D A
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
D A
You swore when you wore my ring
It meant forever
Bm A G
You’ve got it on baby, How can you say you lost it
Bm
Yeah and you promised
Bm
We were different people then
A
Look at all the hateful things we’ve said
G
And I’m just as guilty,but girl you that's no wat to be
Bm
Take it easy baby I’m still broken
A
Memories enough to tear me wide open
G
When you see me girl you curse my name
Makes me wanna say no
D A
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G A
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
D A
You swore when you wore my ring
We said forever
Bm A G
But You took it off baby, safet ot say we're though
Bm A G
But no matter what you do you know i'll always love you
Hell I have to
Cause I Promised
