You Promised

D Bm G A

[Verse]
D                                 
She was crying out my name, 
   Bm                              
Standing in the driveway
     G

Little bare feet wearing her cotton 
dress and I
D                        Bm      
I still see the rain chasing 
                 G
tears down her face

It was back in October when I said 
it’s over and hid
Bm           A                    
Behind the door, behind the shame of
 G
 my conviction
Bm            A                  
Bedside myself ,beside some empty
     G
 pill prescription
Can hear her screamig' no

[Chorus]
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                                 
You swore when I wore your ring
     A

It meant forever
Bm                  A            
I've got it on baby, how can you 
                G
say I lost it
Oh, you promised

[Verse]
D                                 
Started crying while I was 
             Bm                    G
sleeping, waking up and reaching out
Continúa después del anuncio
To a bed as empty as the heart 
inside my chest
D                                 
So I gathered up some pictures, i 
        Bm                         
said i had somethin to give her
        G


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             
I heard her words, i heard her say 
 G
it'll never work
And hit my knees and cried

[Chorus]
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                                 
You swore when you wore my ring
       A

It meant forever
   Bm                     A       
You’ve got it on baby, How can you
                        G
 say you lost it
                  Bm
Yeah and you promised

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
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                                 
You swore when you wore my ring
       A

We said forever
Bm                     A         
But You took it off baby, safet 
                        G
ot say we're though
Bm                                 
But no matter what you do you know 
A                           G
i'll always love you
