Song: “The Promise” Artist: Anberlin(Originally by When In Rome) Album: Cities(2007) Ok, this is my first tab, so I chose a simple song. I did it in Word so give me a break. Pretty cool song though…… ** I recommend playing the G and F the way that is shown. It gives it more fullness. You can play them however you like but a G major won’t sound to spiffy in this song.** **Tuning is in Standard EADGBE** Chords C Am F G |--x--| |--x--| |--x--| |--x--| |--1--| |--1--| |--1--| |--3--| |--0--| |--2--| |--2--| |--4--| |--2--| |--2--| |--3--| |--5--| |--3--| |--0--| |--3--| |--5--| |--x--| |--x--| |--x--| |--x--| Intro(Acoustic) |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--3h5--6--5--3--5----3h5--6--5--3--5--1----3h5--6--5--3----3h5-6-5-3-5-1---| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------3------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Verse 1:
