G                   Am
When the visions around you,
F                    G
Bring tears to your eyes
G                    Am
And all that surrounds you,
F                G
Are secrets and lies
F
I'll be your strength,
G
I'll give you hope,
C              G               Am
Keeping your faith when it's gone
F
The one you should call,
Fm                             G
When you're standing here all alone...


[Chorus]

C
And I will take
G
You in my arms
Am                        F
And hold you right where you belong
C                        G
Till the day my life is through
            F
This I promise you
              C
This I promise you


[Verse 2]

G                   Am
I've loved you forever,
F                    G
In lifetimes before
G                   Am
And I promise you never,
F                    G
Will you hurt anymore
F
I give you my word
G
I give you my heart
C          C/B       Am
This is a battle we've won
F
And with this vow,
Fm                  G
Forever has now begun...


[Chorus]

C
And I will take
G
You in my arms
Am                        F
And hold you right where you belong
C                        G
Till the day my life is through
            F
This I promise you
              C
This I promise you

C
Just close your eyes
G
Each loving day (each loving day)
Am                         F
And I know this feeling won't go away
C                      G
Till the day my life is through
F
This I promise you
C
ooh I promise you


[Bridge]

Dm7              G
Over and over I fall
Dm7              G
When I hear you call
         C G       F
Without you in my life baby
Am                            G
I just wouldn't be living at all


[Solo]


[Chorus]

C
And I will take
G
You in my arms
Am                        F
And hold you right where you belong
C                        G
Till the day my life is through
            F
This I promise you
              C
This I promise you

C
Just close your eyes
G
Each loving day (each loving day)
Am                         F
And I know this feeling won't go away
C                      G
Till the day my life is through
F
This I promise you


[Outro]
C                    G
Every word I say is true.
F
This I promise you
C
Ooh, I promise you...
