Gordon Lightfoot - Thank you for the promises

^AmThank you for the promises we ^Gmake I know I can't com^Dmplain, I think I did al^Amright No failures are in ^Esight, only now and ^Fthen I'd like to reminisce,^E do you remember when ^{Am D/F# E}

^AmEven if we're angels, we can't ^Gask To wander through the ^Dmpast, the future is our ^Amgoal The night is black as ^Ecoal, if I could pay the ^Fprice I'd like to love you once,^E I'd love to love you ^Amtwice

Thanks, we cannot say e^Cnough The road is sometimes ^Drough But we can get a^Amlong The going will get ^Ctough, but we won't be a^Dfraid Of the promises we ^Emade ^E
