Richard Marx and JC Chasez - This I Promise You Chords

This is another song that I wrote for someone else.
And I wrote this song about 10 years ago
for a group called NSYNC. _ _ _ _
I got a call to see if I had a song for them,
and so I sent this song in, and luckily they liked it,
and then they asked me to produce it as well.
So I went down to Florida, where all the guys were based,
and got to work with them for a few days.
And it was such a great experience for me.
They were just, all five of those guys
were just so gracious and talented and fun to be with.
The only thing that happened during that time
of working with them that was kind of lame for me
was we had to find this really out-of-the-way studio
because everywhere NSYNC went, screaming girls followed.
It was crazy.
So we found this out-of-the-way studio,
and [A#] still a bunch of girls [C] found out
where we were recording.
So they would have to sneak the [A] guys from NSYNC
in and out of the back of the building
through this secret door.
_ I would just park in the parking lot
and _ go in the front.
Whatever, it's fine.
_ _ So that's kind of how it worked for a few days.
And the last night of recording,
I was in there until two or three in the morning
with the guys, and they looked out,
and I'm sure there were still these girls screaming,
these girls waiting to catch a glimpse of one of them
out in the parking lot, so they snuck the guys
out [N] the back, and I went out the front.
And I'm walking in my rental car,
carrying a bag over my shoulder,
and I'm just about to get in the car,
and this really cute girl, about 19 years old,
comes running over to me, and she goes,
"'Excuse me, excuse me!"
And I turned around and said,
"'Yeah?'
And she said,
"'Are you Richard Marks?'
_ I know.
"'I know.'
I kinda had a little second there where I was like,
and _ I said, "'Yeah, yeah, I am.'
And she went, "'Oh my gosh, my mother loves you.'" _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So I'd like to do this song for all you mothers out there.
_ _ _ _ This is called, "'This I Promise You.'"
