Promises
By Daryle Singletary

Cheap per[E]fume and painted faces, fallen angles fill the places
Where I [A]go when my troubles pull me [E]down
And [E]all the lies I know they'll tell me and the time that they will sell me
For a [F#]while I'll be the biggest man in [B7]town
Back at [E]home in bed she's crying, for her love for me is dying
But she'll [A]pray I'll make it safely through the [E]night
When the [B7]morning sun starts showing to her [A]bedside I'll be going
And she'll [E]hold me while I [B7]face the morning [E]light
Chorus:
And I'll make [E]promises, promises to change
I'll make her [G#]promises and swear I'll rearrange
And I'll [A]start giving all the love she needs
If [B7]only she will stay[A] [B7]
Once again she'll reassure me and I believe her love will cure me
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
And someday soon I know she'll leave without a trace
Chorus 2:
For broken promises will tear her dreams apart
Just token promises will someday break her heart
And for the last time she'll hold me when I cry
And while I'm sleeping she'll quietly say goodbye
