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

from so far away, your sad smile, is all I see

        E

when I say





REPEAT CHORUS---



E               A                                              

From the hotel satellite don't look like you're livin'

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
