VERSE 1::
Am                            G
Thank you for the promises we make
                  Dm                     Am
I know I can't complain, I think I did alright
                   E                   F
No failures are in sight, only now and then
                      E                     Am  D/F#  E
I'd like to reminisce, do you remember when

VERSE 2::
Am                             G
Even if we're angels, we can't ask
                      Dm                      Am
To wander through the past, the future is our goal
                      E                        F
The night is black as coal, if I could pay the price
                          E                     Am
I'd like to love you once, I'd love to love you twice


CHORUS::
                       C
Thanks, we cannot say enough
                      D
The road is sometimes rough
                Am
But we can get along
                   C                       D
The going will get tough, but we won't be afraid
                   E    E-Cadd9-E7
Of the promises we made


VERSE 3::
Am                             G
Thank you for the promises you keep
                Dm                      Am
When I am fast asleep, to be where we belong
                      E                    F
Is all that I can ask, we can do it in the shade
                  E                           Am   G/A
As long as I have you and the promises we made


VERSE 4::
Am                            G
Thank you for the promises we break
                    Dm                             Am
You made a clean mistake, well that's what love's about
                     E                           F
No need to stand and shout, the truth is in your eyes
                    E                       Am
The answer lies within, no need to criticize


CHORUS::
                            C
Thanks, for the promises at hand
                       D
The abuse that we must stand
                Am
Is often heaven sent
                     C                      D
They may not pay the rent, you never can be sure
                  E    E-Cadd9-E7
When promises get bent


VERSE 5::
Am                              G
Thank you for the promises that live
                       Dm                  Am
That is all that I can give, forever in my mind
                    E                       F
To leave the past behind and seal it with a kiss
              E                          Am     G/A   Am
