A Promise


An absolutely gorgeous song. This was a bit tricky to figure out, but here's the best estimate I've been able to come up with. Listen to the song for the chord changes Intro: D E F#m D E F#m A E E D D E F#m On this hilltop F#m E I buried you E D As a younger man D E F#m We gathered 'round F#m E Your empty husk E D A And spoke of how you were so loved D E F#m And as the sun died F#m E I promised I E D Would seek you out D E F#m And now the years have F#m E weathered me E D A A/Ab F#m And soon'll claim you for my arms a - gain D E A D And if our hearts all disappear D E F#m A And if our bones they crumble to the soil D E A D Well our love will rise again INTERLUDE D - E - D - E - D - F#m - A - E X2 E - F#m - E - D - F#m - E - D Hold D for a really long time D - E - A - D D - E - F#m - A D - E - A - D D - E Repeat this pattern until... D E A D And if our hearts all disappear D E F#m A And if our bones they crumble to the soil D E A D And all our love will rise again D E And we'll float to the sea D E A D And if our hearts all disappear D E F#m A And if our bones they crumble to the soil D E A D And all our love will rise again D E F#m (let ring) And we'll float to the sea Broken Records: http://www.brokenrecordsband.com/
