Song: Promise Me
Album: Beverly Craven /(Soulsister Ambassador)
Year: 1990 /(2004)
Transcribed by Roman Komp (eques.tenebrarum@gmx.de)
Hi folks,
I was tired of searching a tab for that song. I didn't find one (except one that just
stopped at the beginning of the refrain), so I decided to make one myself. Now that
I'm finished (for my part. I just wanted the chords so one can sing along round the
campfire - hey, it's getting summer!! O' course there is more stuff to transcribe),
I want to share it with you.
That song's to beautiful to be true, so have fun with it!

Ok, in der Originaltonart und mit den Lyrics sieht das Ganze so aus:
Intro: 2x{ Cm Bb(/C) Ab(/C) Bb(/C) } (Arpeggios zupfen)
Cm Bb
You light up another cigarette
Gm Ab
And I pour the wine
Cm Bb
It's four o'clock in the morning
Gm Ab
And it's starting to get light
Cm Bb
Now I'm right where I wanna be
Gm Ab
Losing track of time
Fm Gm Cm
But I wish that it was still last night
Cm Bb
You look like you're in another world
Gm Ab
But I can read your mind
Cm Bb
How can you be so far away
Gm Ab
Lying by my side
G Cm
When I go away I'll miss you
C Fm
And I will be thinking of you
Db Db/Eb
Every night and day just...

Ab Eb
Promise me you'll wait for me
Db Db/Eb Ab
'cos I'll be saving all my love for you
Eb Db Eb
And I will be home soo-o-o-oon
Ab Eb
Promise me you'll wait for me
Db C Fm Fm/Eb
I need to know you feel the same way too
Db Db/Eb Ab
And I'll be home, I'll be home soon
