	  PROMISE  

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)
