[ Promises von Eric Clapton ]


  



(At '*' play F# note to walk up to the G chord, it simulates the 

 bass and it's the hook of the song, if you've heard it you will recognize it)



G

I don't care if you never come home

C                                G                                   

I don't mind if you just keep on rolling away on a distant sea cause 

D                              *    G

I don't love you and you don't love me.





G

The cause of commotion when you come to town

C

Give 'em a smile and they melt

        G

And the lovers and friends are all good and fine,

    D                                *    G

But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.





G  C      G           D  

La la---- la la la la la

G  C      G           D

La la---- la la la la la





G                     

I don't care what you do at night and

C 

I don't care how you get your delights,

     G

I'll leave you alone, I'll just let it be

D                              *    G

I don't love you and you don't love me.





C                   Em/B

I've got a problem, can you relate,

Am               G           

I've got a woman callin' love hate

C              Em/B

Even in doubt, We'll always be friends

Am                         G

How could we know that the promises end?



G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la

G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la 





G

I try to love you for years upon years,

C

You refuse to take me for real

     G

It's time you saw what I want you to see

    D                              *    G

And I'd still love you if you just like me.





G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la

G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la

G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la

G  C                  D

La la---- la la la la la
