Intro: CGDC
---
GCG
I'm trying to believe in forever
CGD
I'm trying to believe in the little jewel box life we lead
GC
Babe, I get so close sometimes
GC
But all I really know is
GDGC
I believe that we've been making hard promises to keep
---
GCG
You want me to believe in forever
CGD
Do you know how tight I'm holding, just to keep my grip on yesterday
GC
I'm trying hard to see
GC
The pretty pictures that you paint for me
GDG
Do you know how tight I'm holding to hard promises to keep
Chorus:
CG
Promises are like little diamonds
CGD
Promises are like little hearts we meant to give away
GC
I thought you'd want them back someday
GC
I've kept them for you anyway
GDG
But I know when I've been given hard promises to keep
Instrumental:

Promises are like little hearts we meant to give away

I thought you'd want them back someday

GDG
But I know when I've been given hard promises to keep
DG
And I know that I've been given hard promises to keep
