Title: Promise
Artist: deliriou5
Source: King of Fools (Furious Records)
Transcribed by:Elliot Whiting (ellw@hotmail.com)
Best selling British single from deliriou5, reached No.20 in the
billboard charts.
Valvey distortion neccessary, reduce for verse or play softer so that
the signal breaks up less.
INTRO:
What ever happened? [sample]
G / Em7#9 / A x2
[G] [/] [Em7#9] [/] [A] [/] [C]  
VERSE:
G /Em(7#9) [Let ring]
Did I wipe the tear, or did I spit in your face?
Did I point the finger or give the hand of grace?
Oh w[C]hy..[F].does it co[Em(7#9)]me to this?
[Strike cbords once] 
[Em7(#9)]Is it freedom that you want, or are the chains i[A]n your head?
Ca[Em]n a man play God, when He m[A]ade his own bed?
Oh [C]why...[F]does it co[Em]me to this?
CHORUS:
[G] [/] [Em7#9] Whatever happened to the lo[A]ve that you made?
[G] [/] [Em7#9] Whatever happened to the pr[A]ayer that you prayed?
[G] [/] [Em7#9] Whatever happens to a promi[A]se these da[C]ys?
VERSE:[Play eacb note of tbe cbord, upwards]
Did the[Em7] Earth disappear, when you tol[A]d of the truth,
Of the [Em7]lands you would conquer, of the [A]mountains you'd move?
Oh wh[C]y...[F]does it come to [Em]this?
[As before] 
Did you covenant or live the dream in your head?
Would you die for her or rather raise the dead?
Oh when...will I learn from this?
