Promises
Eric Clapton
*For this song, the more simple version of G with the B string open sounds better (320003)
*In the verses, walk up from the G to the C
*Also, every time you go from a D to G, wrap your thumb around and play the F# on the
low E string right before the G.
*I put the walk ups in parenthesis in the first verse to show that it's a single note
and not a chord.
G (A) (B)
I don't care if you never come home
CI don't mind if you just
keep on Growing away on a distant sea cause
D (F#) G
I don't love you and you don't love me
GYou cause commotion when you come to town
CGive 'em a smile and they melt
Having Glovers and friends is all good and fine
But DI don't like yours and you don't like Gmine
C Bm7 D *(play with Dsus4 and Dsus2 here)
La la la la la la la
C Bm7 D (F#) G
La la la la la la la
GI don't care what you do at night and
CI don't care how you get your delights
I'll Gleave you alone, I'll just let it be
DI don't love you and you don't love Gme
CI've got a problem, Gcan you relate
Am7I've got a woman cGallin' love hate
CWe made a vow, We'd aGlways be friends
Am7How could we know that the pGromises end
La Cla Bm7la la la la lDa
La Cla Bm7la la la la lDa
GI tried to love you for years upon years
CYou refuse to take me for real
It's Gtime you saw what I want you to see
That DI'd still love you if you'd just lovGe me
CI've got a problem, Gcan you relate
Am7I've got a woman cGallin' love hate
CWe made a vow, We'd aGlways be friends
Am7How could we know that the pGromises end
La Cla Bm7la la la la lDa
La Cla Bm7la la la la lDa
*Repeat as many times as you want and end on a G
