[Verse 1]
[Am]You'd better believe I'm coming
You'd [Em]better believe what I say
You'd [G]better hold on
to your promises, because
[F]You bet you'll get what you deserve
[Am]She's going to leave him over
She's [Em]going take her love away
[G]So much for your eternal vows
Well [F]it does not matter anyway

Stay here a[G]while
Stay with [F]me

[Chorus 1]
[Am]Oh, oh, oh
All the [Em]promises we made (promises we)
All the [G]meaningless and empty words
I [F]prayed, prayed, prayed
[Am]Oh, oh, oh
All the [Em]promises we broke (promises we)
All the [G]meaningless and empty words

[Verse 2]
[Am]What of all the things that you taught me
[Em]What of all the things that you'd say
[G]What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just [F]throwing it all away
[Am]Maybe we should burn the house down
[Em]Have ourselves another fight
[G]Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cause [F]tearing them out is just not right

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Am]Why can't you stay here aw[Em]hile
Stay here a[G]while
Stay with [F]me

[Chorus 2]

All the [Em]promises we made (promises we)
