Promise     Nicholas Holmes

(G)(hold)Harmony gets melo(Em7)(hold)dy,
(Am)(hold)An orchestra gets (C-note on B-string)(hold)symphonies,
(G)(hold)Continents get (Em)(hold)seven seas,
(Am)Boy gets (hold)girl,
And (Dm-5thfret)all you (hold)got was (Em7)me
And a (Dm7)promise:
I'll (Em7)try to be (Dm7)honest,
(G) I'd like to (Am)give you
(Dm7)Nothing to fea(G7)r.  (G) (hold)


Well, (Bb)we could grow into a circle,
Big enough to under(A/C#)stand everyone,
We'd be the (hold)first, we'd be the (D)only ones
In the (C)galaxy
To (Bb)really (hold)be (G)f(Em)r(Am)e(D)e.(hold)

(G)Lovers get I'm sor(Em7)ry,
(Am)(hold)Music gets to (C6)keep the key,(hold)
(G)Children get to (Em)(hold)ride for free,
(Am)(hold)Mind and body,
That's (Dm7)(hold)all you've got of (Em7)me,
And a (Dm7)promise:
I'll (Em7)try to be (Dm7)honest,
(G) I'd like to (Am)give you
(Dm7)Nothing to fea(G7)r.  (G) 

Well, (Bb)we can grow into a circle,
Big enough to under(A/C#)stand everyone,
We'd be the (hold)first, we'd be the (D)only ones
In the (C)galaxy
To (Bb)really (hold)be (G)f(Em)r(Am)e(D)e,
(G)oh(Em)oh(Am)oh(D)oh.
I (G)promise.

Jerry Jeff Walker´s version.

For some chords, you should not play the high E-string - you'll hear where.
