If A Promise Ain't Enough
Hall and Oates
Intro: A A9 A Dm7 2x
A9 A
Don't wanna open your heart
A9 A
You're afraid from the start
Dm7
That a new love's gonna get you down,
A9 A
There was something you should know
A9 A
Before you give up and go
Dm7 Bm7
I don't believe in a run-around
C#m7
I just wanted to find myself
Dm7 C#m7 Bm7
And show you how I feel.
Chorus:
Dm7 E
If a promise ain't enough
A9 A 2x
Then a touch says everything
Dm7 E
Gotta hold you in my arms
A9 A 2x
Do you feel what I mean
Dm7 E
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
C#m7 F#m
But words can only prove so much
Dm7 E
If a promise ain't enough
A
Hold on to my love.
A9 A
Though my words can't describe
A9 A
How I'm feelin' all inside,
Dm7
Does my touch say anything to you,
A9 A
I'm not afraid to take time
A9 A
'Cause I know you'll find,
Dm7 Bm7
That I'm real and my touch is true,
C#m7
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
Dm7 C#m7 Bm7
And I give it all to you.
(Repeat Chorus) A Dm7 2x
Dm7
Oh yeah
A Dm7
Uhmmm..
Bm7 C#m7
Oh, it took a lifetime to find what I want
Dm7 C#m7 Bm7
I won't let it get away.
(Repeat Chorus)
Dm7 E
If a promise ain't enough
..... Hold on!
A C#m7 Bm7 E...
If a promise ain't enough
Promises - promises - promises - hold on to my love,
Promises - promises - promises - hold on to my love .....
(Repeat and Fade)
