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
