Promise

Here we are now in the backyard On the warm ground out at sundown
E MajorE
But in twelve days I'll be halfway
E MajorE
Cross the world, I'm too tired to be afraid
                        Aadd4

You've got green eyes, I had foresight
E MajorE
When I said we'd be good I was so right
                        Aadd4
If we lay here, spend every day here
F# minorF#m           Aadd4
Well our legs might take root and we'll grow dear
E MajorE                          Aadd4

I made a promise to
E MajorE
I made a promise to
E MajorE
I made a promise to you
F# minorF#m        C# minorC#m   A augmentedA

(Break)
E MajorE    Aadd4

I'd protect you if I had to
E MajorE
So the bad parts never get through
                    Aadd4
From the outside into your life
E MajorE
We can try but we might have some hard nights
                            Aadd4
Now we can't speak 'neath the pine trees
E MajorE
And I swear that there's air but I can't breathe
                          Aadd4
I need your heat, I've got cold feet
F# minorF#m           Aadd4
It's the thought that still makes this so easy
E MajorE                        Aadd4

I made a promise to
E MajorE
I made a promise to
E MajorE
I made a promise to you
F# minorF#m        C# minorC#m   A augmentedA
That we'd still feel brand new
E MajorE
That we'd still feel brand new
E MajorE
That we'd still feel something
F# minorF#m        C# minorC#m   A augmentedA

(Break)
E MajorE  Aadd4  Bsus4Bsus4  C#m7C#m7
Bsus4Bsus4  E MajorE (x4)

She's not too fond of history
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4     E MajorE
Hearing loud of abrasive speech
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4      Aadd4
She's unique in the way she eats
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4      Aadd4
oh yeah she loves me
C#m7C#m7     Bsus4Bsus4       E MajorE
Why she does hell I cannot say
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4     E MajorE
I can't seem to stay in one place
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4      Aadd4
Always gone and I'm far away
C#m7C#m7     Bsus4Bsus4      Aadd4
 from the smile on her face
C#m7C#m7      Bsus4Bsus4     E MajorE

(Repeats throughout last section)
E MajorE  Aadd4  Bsus4Bsus4  C#m7C#m7
Bsus4Bsus4  E MajorE (x6)

Was it something that I couldn't say?
Fast enough to get away
And though I tried to make a clean escape
You left me with an even break

And i think I saw myself in you
But I think you saw a proper fool
And I know we broke every rule
With everything we didn't do

I'll remember every day
If you remember every dumb mistake
That you made cause you were late
But its my fault I made you wait

In this city I cant speak
Well you know this place is killing me
And it's harder to believe
