Promise

	  		C                      C/Bb 
I made a promise 
Am7                   Fm6 
To distance myself 
C                      C/Bb 
Took a flight, through aurora skies 

Am7          Fm6 
Honestly, I didn't think about 
C                        C7 
How we didn't say goodbye 
Famj7                  Fm6 
Just see you very soon 

Dm7 
It hurts to be something 
        Fm6                       C 
It's worse to be nothing with you 

( C7  Am7  Fm6 ) 

C                   C/Bb 
So I didn't call you 
Am7                   Fm6 
For sixteen long days 
C                            C/Bb 
And I should get a cigarette 
Am7                    Fm6 
For so much restraint 
                    C                  C/Bb 
No matter how long I resist temptation 
F7M                 Fm6 
I will always lose 

   Dm7 
It hurts to be something 
      Fm6                         Dm7 
It's worse to be nothing with you 

                   G7 
I've done the math 
                    C7M 
There's no solution 
                 A9 
We'll never last 
Dm7                 Fm6 
Why can't I let go of this?

C                C/Bb 
So I broke my promise 
Am7              Fm6 
I called you last night 
C                              C/Bb 
I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have 
Am7                         Fm6 
If it weren't for the sight of a boy 
C 
Who lookеd just like you 
C7                          F7M  Fm6 
Standing out on Melrose avеnue
