PROMISES
Randy Travis
      
      E
Cheap perfume and painted faces, Fallin' angels fill the places
        A                           E
Where I go when my troubles pull me down

All the lies I know they'll tell me and the time that they will sell me
     F#m7                             B
For awhile I'll be the biggest man in town
        E
Back at home in bed she's cryin for her love for me is dyin'
           A                                 E
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
         B                                  A
When the mornin' sun starts showin', to her bedside I'll be goin'
           E               B                E
And she'll hold me while I face the morning light

And I'll make promises, promises to change
              G#
I'll make her promises, swear to rearrange
               A                                              B      A  B
And I'll start givin' all the love she needs if only she will stay.......
     E
Once again she'll reassure me and I belive her love will cure me
         A                            E
And I'll fall asleep with tears on my face

Lord I know she's just a woman and her love can't last forever
            F#m7                               B
And someday soon I know she'll leave without a trace
           E
For broken promises will tear her dreams apart
            G#
Just broken promises will someday break her heart
            A
And for the last time she'll hold me while I cry
              B                A    B  A/B C
And while I'm sleepin', she'll quietly say goodbye
