Promises You Couldnt Keep

Amanda Fagan


Tom: F#m

F#m                       D
I tried so hard to rescue you
      Fm    A
Now I see I was the one
              E
Who needed saving
F#m                        D
All of the pain you put me through
           A                                       E
And I can't believe they think you're finally changing

[Verse 2]
                   F#m   E
'Cause you were a maniac
                 D
And you still are
E       F#m             E
And they might not know better
      D
But I know from all these scars

[Chorus]
         F#m          D
So who's next on your list
       F#m     E
Of manipulated fools
      F#m                 D         A
And I know I shouldn't care about you
      E
But I do
                   F#m     D
But you never asked for me
                   A     E
You never checked up on me
             F#m     D
Oh why was I so naive
        F#m       E
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep

[Instrumental] F#m D F#m E

[Verse 3]
F#m                 D
Why did you have to go invade
               A                            E
The only place that ever really gave me safety
         F#m
The person that you were
               D
I watched them fade
          A                      E
Only a twisted apparition remains

         F#m             D
So who's next on your list
       F#m   D
Of manipulated fools
         F#m               D           A
And I know I shouldn't care about you
E
But I do
              F#m          D
But you never asked for me
                  F#m   A E
You never checked up on me
               F#m    D
Oh why was I so naive
        A     E
Holding on to promises you couldn't keep

[Instrumental]
F#m D F#m E

[Verse 4]
F#m          D        F#m
You're so manipulative
   A   E
I finally figured it out
F#m       D
You never cared about me
F#m          E
You only cared about yourself

[Verse 5]
F#m                 D
You were not the person
       F#m     A     E
That I thought you were
    F#m       D
You had to be in control
    F#m         A      E
You had to have your power

[Chorus]
         F#m            D
So who's next on your list
     F#m  A         E
Of manipulated fools
          F#m              D         F#m
And I know I shouldn't care about you
A       E
But I do
              F#m          D
But you never asked for me
                    F#m A  E
You never checked up on me
             F#m     D
Oh why was I so naive
        F#m   A     E
Holding on to promises you couldn’t keep

[Instrumental]
F#m D F#m A E

[Outro]
         F#m    A    E
Holding on to promises
             F#m   D
You couldn't keep
              F#m  A E F#m
Oh why was I so naive
