Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
She was crying out my name, Standing in the driveway
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face
It was back in October when I said its over and hid
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription
Can hear her screamig' no
No baby don't, you making my heart hurt
Dont say those words
Take it back, you know you don't mean that
You swore when I wore your ring
It meant forever
I've got it on baby, how can you say I lost it
Oh, you promised
Started crying while I was sleeping, waking up and reaching out
To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
So I gathered up some pictures, i said i had somethin to give her
I let her read a letter, i had a written her to give her on the day we tied the knot
I saw the tears
I saw them fall as she read the part of my growing old
I heard her words, i heard her say it'll never work
And hit my knees and cried
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Dont say those words
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
You swore when you wore my ring
It meant forever
Youve got it on baby, How can you say you lost it
Yeah and you promised
We were different people then
Look at all the hateful things weve said
And Im just as guilty,but girl you that's no wat to be
Take it easy baby Im still broken
Memories enough to tear me wide open
When you see me girl you curse my name
Makes me wanna say no
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Dont say those words
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
You swore when you wore my ring
We said forever
But You took it off baby, safet ot say we're though
But no matter what you do you know i'll always love you
Hell I have to
Cause I Promised
