Eric Clapton, Promises (1978)
Key: :[A#] (w: Richard Feldman, Roger Linn) (BPM: 154 / 34-B)
INTRO: [A#]
VERSE 1:
[A#] I don't care if you never come home
[D#] I don't mind if you just
Keep on
[A#] rowing away on a distant sea
'Cause I
[F] don't love you and you don't love
[A#] me
VERSE 2:
You
[A#] cause a commotion when you come to town
You
[D#] give them a smile and they melt
Having
[A#] lovers and friends is all good and fine
But I
[F] don't like yours and you don't like
[A#] mine
CHORUS:
La
[D#] la,
[A#/D] la la la la
[F] la
[F]
La
[D#] la,
[A#/D] la la la la
[F] la
[A#]
VERSE 3:
[A#] I don't care what you do at night
Oh, and
[D#] I don't care how you get your delights
I will
[A#] leave you alone, I will just let it be
I
[F] don't love you and you don't love
[A#] me
BRIDGE:
[D#] I got a problem,
[A#/D] can you relate?
[Cm7] I got a woman
[A#] calling love hate
[D#] We made a vow we'd
[A#/D] always be friends
[Cm7] How could we know that promises
[A#] end?
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 4:
[A#] I tried to love you for years upon years
You re-
[D#]-fuse to take me for real
It's
[A#] time you saw what I want you to see
And I would
[F] still love you, if you would just love
[A#] me
REPEAT BRIDGE:
REPEAT CHORUS: [multiple times]
