The Promise Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][G]
[G]One, two, three, four
[G]Everything he does,
better than anything ordinary
Everything he wants he gets
'Cause everything he does is kinda necessary
Though [G]I believe in love
Tell me, can anything last forever?
If life can live up to love
Then a hand on my heart,

[Chorus 1]
I'm never saying never
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
Nothing at all, nothing that I do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made
Is starting to fade, starting to fade, babe
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
[D]Nothing at all that I cannot do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made

[Verse 1]
Is starting to fade, starting to fade
[Am]Maybe next time I'll take a ride[D] on by
When I feel [G]you near
'Cause I can't [Am]play this like I'm meant to now
My Al[D]ladin's lamp is down, and I got[Em]ta fear

[Pre-chorus 1]
Oh, baby right here
[G]Giving up just looking into win[Dm]dows[G]
[C]Yeah, I've had enough of wishing
I found [Cm]you
Baby, don't you know
[G]I've had as much as I can take of
[Dm]fall[G]ing, y[C]eah
Got a lot to learn 'bout riding [B]through

[Chorus 2]
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
Nothing at all, nothing that I do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made
Is starting to fade, starting to fade, babe
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
[D]Nothing at all that I cannot do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made

[Verse 2]
Is starting to fade, starting to fade
[Am]Here I am, a[D] walking primrose
[G]Wondering when I'm gonna see
you again
[Am]So here I am, [D]a walking primrose
[Em]Wondering when I'm gonna see
you again

[Pre-chorus 2]
I got [G]my hands all ready to touch your soul
I'm gon[Dm]na get the energy
to [G]wire me close to [C]you
Got my eyes on the prize I see
[Cm]Are you watching me baby?
'Cause [G]my heart is turning to solid gold
And [Dm]my head is saying,
"honey, [G]too good to be [C]true"
Oh, one look in your glittered eyes
[B]Power's failing me every time

[Chorus 3]
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
Nothing at all, nothing that I do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made
Is starting to fade, starting to fade, babe
[Am]You're gonna make me, make me love you
[D]Nothing at all that I cannot do
The [G]promise I made, the promise I made

[Bridge 1]
Is starting to fade, starting to fade
[Am]Maybe it's not that hard to know you
Maybe we'll make it up and [G]go
Maybe we'll work things out
There's only one way up
and one way down, I [Am]know
If you wanna convince me start a[D]gain
If you wanna be with me in [G]my arms

[Chorus 4]
'Cause [Bbm]you're gonna make me,
make me love you
Nothing at all, nothing that I do
The [Ab]promise I made, the promise I made
Is starting to fade, starting to fade, babe
[Bbm]You're gonna make me, make me love you
[Eb]Nothing at all that I cannot do
The [Ab]promise I made, the promise I made

[Outro 1]
Is starting to fade, starting to fade, babe
[Bbm]Maybe next time I'll take a ride on by
When I feel [Ab]you near
[Bbm]Maybe next time I'll take a ride o[Eb]n by
When I feel [Ab]you near
[Fade out]
