A#                 D#            A#
I promised you the day you marry me
     F7                                 A# F7
I'll be everything to you that I should be
A#                        D#                A#
And while you're in the springtime of your years
        F7                                A#
You'll not know what it's like to shed a tear
     A#7                                  D#
I'll be the same through all that we go through
          A# F7           A# F7
I promise you  I promise you

I promise you for richer or for poorer
I'll more than share each pain that you endure
And when you're in the autumn of your years
You'll call me in the night and I'll be near
I love you and I'll let you know I do
I promise you I promise you

C              F                 C
I promise you for better or for worse
       G7                          C  G7
I'll stand by you as I did at the first
C                       F              C
And when you're in the winter of your years
     G7                                 C
I'll be right by your side to dry your tears
         C7                                     F
Yes I'll be the same through all that we go through
           C G7          C
I promise you I promise you
           C G7          C
I promise you I promise you
