Promise Chords

(ver. 1)
Hey Rosetta
B

B
ye lowlives 
laughing too much 
never close your eyes 
til the sun's coming up 
Abm          E              B
underslept, overdreamt 

B

B
my whole life 
trying to speak 
but silent 
with so much beneath it 
Abm        E    
that thick wind under the surface 
F#                    Ebm
you don't know me, or my purpose 
E             F#                B
or my promise, i got promise 

B

B
your hands and feet 
for all of their grief 
turned out to be 
                                 Abm
only your elbows and knees 
                E                         B
you go farther, you're just starting to see 

B
and you see that red pen 
hover in judgement 
and that census 
                          Abm
get those numbers away from us 
          E             F#
cause honest, we got nothing 
              Ebm              E
in our pockets but thin wrists 
         F#           B
and promise, we got promise 
B

B               Abm
i'm waking up 
                      B               Abm
pull me from my sheets in the dark 
                      B               Abm
as if in a dream, lifting off 
                      B               Abm
let me feel it shift in my blood 
                      B               Abm
let me feel like i'm rising up 
                      B               Abm
out of all the ashes and dust 
                      B               Abm
out of all the past - that's done
                                  B               Abm                
 i don't need what's long dead and gone, man, 
B (Ebm) Abm (E)
i got promise 
B (Ebm) Abm (E)
i got promise?

B (Ebm) Abm (E)
