Promises
Tuning: Standard
This tab is a basic outline of the song. There are many arpeggios and
random riffs being played by the 2nd guitar. This tab is a good starting
point, though.

--Intro--
*Main Riff x2*
--Verse--
*Main Riff x2*
This spirit is holding us down,
We shit our shoulders in deep.
Pulling us to the light,
Toasted our backs in the sun.
F#m C#m
And I waited to hear the next call,
F#m B7 Emaj7
We got all our ears pressed against the wall.
--Verse 2--
*Main Riff x2*
But now our days are set straight,
We're seeing it all eye to eye.
The balance is still chasing after,
Just hanging on as you walk by.
F#m E
And they say it's only natural,
F#m E
They say we're coming along just fine.
C#m F#m B7
But I can't help thinking we grew up too fast,
C#m F#m B7 Emaj7
And I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has.
--Bridge--
E--Ab--C#m---- x2
E Ab C#m E Ab C#m
Children you will, be cared for at once,
E Ab C#m E Ab C#m
And wanted our arms like, promises plucked from above.
*Main Riff x2*
--Verse 3-- (Same as second verse)
This world is only getting smaller,
The choices aren't ours to be made.
And I feel like wasting my days,
I feel like wasting my days.
And I've seen what's coming on,
And I can't say it will all be fine.
And I can't help thinking we grew up too fast,
No I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
And I know, I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has.
--Outro--
*Main Riff x4*
