EURYDICE:

E      D
Promises you made to me
E         D
You said the rivers and the trees
Bm               D
Would fill our pockets and our plates
Bm      D
Promises you made
E            D
You said the birds would blanket us
E           D
You said the world was generous
Bm               D
And wouldn’t turn its back on us

Interlude:
Bm D

Bm
The river froze
A
The trees were bare
Bm           A
And all the birds they disappeared
   Bm     C
So me too I flew away
C         D
From promises you made

ORPHEUS:

E      D
Promises you made to me
E            D
You said that you would stay with me
Bm              D
Whatever weather came our way
Bm        D
Promises you made

Bm         A
That we would walk, side by side
Bm           A
Through all the seasons of our lives
      Bm      C
'Neath any sky, down any road
C        D
Any way the wind blows

Interlude:
D A D A Bm G C D

D     A
I have no ring for your finger
D     A
I have no banquet table laid
Bm        G
I have no bed of feathers
Bm    A
Whatever promises I’ve made

D         A
Can’t promise you fair sky above
D         A
Can’t promise you kind road below
Bm         C
But I’ll walk with you, my love
C        D
Any way the wind blows

EURYDICE:

D      A
I don’t need gold, don’t need silver
D              A
Just bread when I’m hungry, fire when I’m cold
Bm        G
Don’t need a ring for my finger
Bm     A
Just need a steady hand to hold

D        A
Don’t promise me fair sky above
D        A
Don’t promise me kind road below
Bm       C
Just walk with me, my love
C        E
Any way the wind blows

ORPHEUS:

E      G
I don’t know where this road will end
E         G
But I’ll walk with you into the wind

BOTH:

D          A
I can’t promise you fair sky above
D         A
Can’t promise you kind road below
Bm         C
But I’ll walk with you, my love
C        D
Any way the wind blows

ORPHEUS:

D       A
Do you let me walk with you?

EURYDICE:

D A
I do

ORPHEUS:

A
I do

BOTH:

 D
I do

EURYDICE:

D      A
And keep on walking, come what will?

ORPHEUS:

D A
I will

EURYDICE:

I will
