intro: single notes, [C], [D], [Em]
[C] [D] [Em]
I promise you will get old
[C] [D] [Em]
I promised you everything
[C] [D] [Em]
To protect you wherever you go
[C] [D] [Em]
I'll give you this diamond ring

chorus:
[G] [D] [Em]
Just promise you will remember
[G] [D] [Em]
A promise should last forever
[G] [D] [Em]
Right up to the dying embers
[G] [D] [Em]
Of a fire that burns so slow
It's a different day everyday
Don't want you to walk alone
But how can we carry on
When all of these things have gone
Just promise you will remember
That promises last forever
Still after the last dying embers
Of a fire that burns so slowly
It's a beautiful thing to do
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Remember I do love you
Have courage in what you say
And promise you will remember
That promises last forever
Still after the dying embers
The fire that burns so slowly
And sometimes you just have to walk away
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Wishing today was yesterday
Yeah, sometimes you just have to walk away
