PROMISES BROKEN by Soul Asylum


Intro: E Abm F#m B

 E                               A
Street are filled with broken glass
                        Am
you get buried by the past, give me just
           E                       B
a little taste, lay this mess to waste,
           E
Take me home.
 E                          A
My mind is racing take me home, my body's
            Am
aching so alone, I'll make you want to stay
      E                      B              E
with me befriended by the enemy, one more time

CHORUS:
 E                                      Abm
Every little thing about you tells me nothing out
                             F#m
there is ever gonna help me all these words that
              B                       E
I hear spoken - just promises broken now

 G                                     Csus2
Looking outside from the window sill throw another
                                  G
coin in the wishing well,  you'll never find what
      Csus2       A  D          A
your looking for, 15 miles your dim light shines
        D         B        E        B
        E
when I say


REPEAT CHORUS---

E               A
Am                            E
right here's a deal you can't refuse, you ain't got as
        B        E                              Abm
much to lose ----Can you tell your troubles to someone
                        F#m          B     E
who won't laugh at you, It's alright.     And as I watch
               Abm                          F#m         B
you walk away hope a part of you will stay, it's alright

REPEAT CHORUS ONCE and you're through!

In the breaks between verses, the little hammer is
just A to B. On the A string: open then second fret

The little run before "Looking outside from the window.."
is just C-B-A-D
