----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Promises - The Morning Benders ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Matt Zartman Email: la7crosse11@aol.com Tuning: Standard This tab is a basic outline of the song. There are many arpeggios and random riffs being played by the 2nd guitar. This tab is a good starting point, though. Intro/Main Riff E C#m e|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|----------------------------| D|--------------4-------------| A|---7/-------6---6--4/-------| E|---7/---4-7-----------------| --Intro-- *Main Riff x2* --Verse-- *Main Riff x2* This spirit is holding us down, We shit our shoulders in deep. Pulling us to the light, Toasted our backs in the sun. F#m C#m And I waited to hear the next call, F#m B7 Emaj7 We got all our ears pressed against the wall. --Verse 2-- *Main Riff x2* But now our days are set straight, We're seeing it all eye to eye. The balance is still chasing after, Just hanging on as you walk by. F#m E And they say it's only natural, F#m E They say we're coming along just fine. C#m F#m B7 But I can't help thinking we grew up too fast, C#m F#m B7 Emaj7 And I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has. --Bridge-- E--Ab--C#m---- x2 E Ab C#m E Ab C#m Children you will, be cared for at once, E Ab C#m E Ab C#m And wanted our arms like, promises plucked from above. *Main Riff x2* --Verse 3-- (Same as second verse) This world is only getting smaller, The choices aren't ours to be made. And I feel like wasting my days, I feel like wasting my days. And I've seen what's coming on, And I can't say it will all be fine. And I can't help thinking we grew up too fast, No I can't help thinking we grew up too fast And I know, I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has. --Outro-- *Main Riff x4* e|--------| B|--------| G|--------| D|--------| A|---7/---| E|---7/---|
