Bm
There's a boy in a garden all alone
   D
Reminds me a story of my own
F#m                                E
Waiting around and a promise never came
     Bm
He's wondering what he's done wrong
   D
It makes me wanna write this song
 F#m                           E
About how I can often feel the same


[Chorus]
        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again
        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again


[Verse 2]
    Bm
The closer I get the harder it is
     D
I'm nervous and I'm tired of this
F#m                                E
Tired of digging up the ground for clues
         Bm
Like the boy who waited for so long
    D
I'm tired of being all this strong
F#m                        E
I need these promises from you


[Chorus]
        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again

        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again


[Verse 3]
Bm
Don't say anything at all
  D
Unless you mean it mean it all
  F#m                            E
I can't get up from another fall
      Bm
Don't hold my hand unless it's right
     D
Stop showing me things that are out of sight
F#m                   E
Holding me in the night

Yeah


[Chorus]
        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again

        Bm          D           F#m
Promise me, promise me, promise me
    E
I'm ready to love again
