[Verse 1]
If I Emhad B7/F#nothing to my Gname

That is Emall B7/F#I would ever Gneed
As Adimlong as I can Emread
What’s G/Bwritten on your C#dimface
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cmaj7 The B11strength that Emshines beGhind your eyes
Cmaj7 The B11hope and Emlight that will B11never die
[Chorus 1]
Em One Cpromise you Gmade D
Em One Cpromise that Galways reDmains
Em No Em7matter theC#dim price
A Gpromise to surCvive, Cmpersevere and Gthrive
As you’ve Dsus4always Ddone
[Verse 2]
And you Emsaid, the B7/F#poison in the Gkiss
Is the Adimlie upon the Glips
AdimTruer words were neverEm shared C
When I Emfeel like B7/F#lies are all I Ghear
I Adimpull my memoriesEm near
The G/Bone thing they can’t C#dimtake B11
[Chorus 2]
Em And one Cpromise you Gmade D
Em One Cpromise that Galways reDmains
Em No Em7matter theC#dim price
A Gpromise to surCvive, Cmpersevere and Gthrive
As you’ve Dsus4always Ddone

Bb The bells still Bb7ringing in Ebthe air
Bb The dreams still Bb7clinging to the EbmpillowB
Abm The song still singing in Ba prayB7er
[Verse 3]
And my Emsoul is B7/F#stretching through the Groots
To Adimmemories of Gyou
AdimBack through time and Emspace C
To carry Emon the B7/F#faces and the Gnames
And Adimphotographs ofC#dim you
B11Rescued from the flB7ames
[Chorus 3]
Em One Cpromise you Gmade D

Fill the world with Glife
As you’ve Dsus4always Ddone
