C
I'm a man of my word
G                      C
 I mean what I say
F                          C
 My pledge is my bond
Am                            G
 Well that's just my way
C
 When you've made a promise
AM                        Fmaj
 To someone who's gone
F                               C
 Well that's when forever
       G                      C
 Seems a little too long
 C
I'm a man of my word
G                          C
 And I made you a vow
F                              C
 I swore that I'd love you
Am                                G
 And I can't change that now
C
 They tell me I'm free
Am                      Fmaj
 To find someone new
F                                  C
 I just don't have the heart
            G                      C
 'Cause I gave mine to you
 Em          Fmaj
I said my love
Am                          C
 Would last for all time
Am                         C               G
 And no one would take your place
Fmaj                C
 Well if that promise
          Am                        Fmaj
 Was the last sound you heard
    F                     C
 Well you know I kept it
G                           C
 I'm a man of my word
 C
I'm a man of my word
G                               C
 And it's cost me so dear
F                                        C
 'Cause those words are a prison
Am                  G
 Without you here
C
 And I'll go to my grave
Am                         Fmaj
 With this torch held high
F                         C
 But just once I wish
     G                    C
 I had told you a lie.
F                       C
Yes I'll always love you
           G               C
 I'm a man of my word
