I Promise I Always Will

A/C# D  A       D/F# G
Take me back to the  beginning
A/C# D        A        D/F#     
When love was patient, love was 
G
kind,
A/C#
Back to the place we first started
A/C#    D          A        
When we weren't so proud to 
D/F#       G
change our minds.


A/C#     D  A         D/F#     
And take me back when love was 
G
selfless
A/C# D         A         D/F#  
When touch was passionate and 
     Em
sweet
A/C#    D            A       
When we weren't just getting 
D/F#            G
what we wanted
A/C# D                 A  D/F#     G
But we gave ourselves so willingly

       D                       G
I love you. I promise I always will.
       D                       G
I love you. I promise I always will.


A/C# D  A       D/F#         G
Take me back to the beginning
A/C# D       A         D/F#       Em
When I would look you in the eye.
A/C#  D           A          
There was no such thing as a 
D/F#         G
cold shoulder
A/C#   D      A          D/F#  
And we lived within your hands 
         Em
and mine.

      D                            
And I love you. I promise I always 
     G
will.
  D                                
I love you. I promise I always 
 G
will.
      Bm         A                
And I chose you. Forever I choose 
D/F#      G  Em
you still.
          D                        
‘Cause I love you, and I promise I 
            G
always will.


A/C#   D  A             D/F# G
Before we burn down all our  bridges
A/C#  D    A              D/F#  
Let’s look awhile at what we've 
G
built.
A/C#       D     A       
We'll take turns asking for 
  D/F#        G
forgiveness
A/C#  D         A         D/F# 
And   watch our love grow 
        G
deeper still
