        A  C  D

Em                   C
Changed my name to "promise you", yeah
A                    C         D
Dying inside 'cause I want to, yeah
Em                   C
Didn't I say I wanted to? Yeah
A                    C         D
Honey I'd changed before you, yeah

Em                   C
28 Years are coming to end
A                    C         D
The rain chased me down the gully again
Em                   C
Now I'm higher than anyone here
A                    C         D
And dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah

( Em  C )
( A  C  D )

Em                   C
But-but-but baby I swear it, I wanted to call
A                    C         D
But on my way 'round I happened to fall
Em                   C
She's a MUA at Carnegie Hall
A                    C         D
In her vanity mirror, we're losing it all

Em                   C
Well, we shacked up swift abandonment way
A                    C         D
Catch sweet rain inside a beret
Em                   C
In it I'm reflecting all of the day
A                    C         D
And I will fade in the night, yeah

[Estribillo]

          C               Em
For the remainder of your life?
D
 Do you accept the charges?
  C                 A
I promise you, I'll promise to, yeah
