[Verse 1]
DGEm7
You change your mind as easily,
ADGEm7A
as you close the window.
DGEm7
You pack your life and take it,
ADGEm7G
any which way the wind blows.
[Verse 2]
ABm7
When you made me promises of love.
AGABm7A
Were your tired of being on your own?
GAF#m7Bm
A little something for sleepless nights.
GEmA
Countless words ago.
[Chorus 1]
DGEm7Asus4DGEm7A
Promises, promises, of love when it's too late.
DGEm7ADGEm7A
Promises, promises, of love but it's too late.
[Verse 3]
DGEm7
You're stuck inside a mistery,
ADGEm7A
like a ship in a bottle.
DGEm7
You say the wildest things.
A7DGEm7A
Still sound subtle.
[Verse 4]
GABm7A
And you know that promises of love;
GABm7A
Have (luv') power of their own.
GAF#m7Bm
They linger on for a little while.
GEm7Em
But once the meaning's gone, baby.
[Chorus 1]
DGEm7ADGEm7A
Promises, promises, of love when it's too late.
DGEm7ADGEm7A
Promises, promises, of love but it's too late.
[Chorus 2]
FA#Gm7CDGEm7A
Promises, promises, you never meant to keep.
DGEm7ADGFG
Promises, promises, are not what I need.
