[Eb] [Fm] [Db]
[Ab]
If [Fm] I had [C]
nothing to [Ab] my name [Bb] but photographs [Ab] of you [Bbm]
rescued from [Fm] the [Db] flame
That [Fm] is all [Bb]
I would ever [Ab] need [Bb] as long as [Fm] I can read what's written on your [D]
face
[Ebm] The [Bb]
[C] strength that [Fm] shines behind your [Eb] eyes
The [Fm]
[C] hope and [Fm] light that [C] will never die
[Fm] One [Db] promise [Ab] you made
[Eb] [Fm] One [Db] promise [Ab] that [Eb] always remains
[Fm]
[Ab] One [D]
[Ab] promise to [Db]
survive
[Bbm] [Bb] Persevere [Ab] and fight [Eb] as you've always done
[Fm] Then you said [Db] the poison in [Ab] the kiss
Is [Bbm] the lie upon [Ab] the lips
[Bb] True words were [Fm] never [Db] shared
Well [Fm] I feel [C] like lies are all [Ab] I hear
[Bb] I pull my [Fm] memories near
[Dbm] The one thing they [D]
can't [C] take
[Fm]
One [Db] promise [Ab] you [Eb] made
[Fm]
[Db] One promise [Ab] that always [Eb] [Fm] remains
[Ab] No matter [D]
price, [Ab] promise to [Db]
survive
[Bb] Persevere [Eb]
[Ab] and fight as [Eb] you've always done
The [E] books still open [Ab] on the table
[B] The bells still ringing [E] in the [B] air
The drinks still clinging [G] to the pillow
[C]
[Am] The songs still singing [C] in the prayer [Fm] of soul
[Bb]
Stretching through [Ab] the roots [Bb] to memories [Ab] of you
[Dbm]
Back through time [Fm] and [Db] space
To [Fm] carry on [Bb] the faces and [Ab] the names
[Dbm] And photographs [Bb] of you [C]
rescued from [E] the [C]
flames
[Fm] [Db] One promise [Ab] you made
[Eb]
[Fm] [Db] One promise [Ab] that always [Eb]
[Fm] remains
[Ab] No matter [D] price,
[Ab] promise to [Db] survive
[Bb] Persevere [Ab] and fight, [E]
then life [Fm] was more
[Ab] Promise to [Db] survive, persevere [Dbm] and fight
Persevere and [Ab] fight as [Eb] you've
[Ab] always [Eb] done
