[Verse 1]
There's a Bmboy in a garden all alone
RemDinds me a story of my own
F#mWaiting around and a promise never Ecame
He's Bmwondering what he's done wrong
It Dmakes me wanna write this song
AF#mbout how I can often feel the Esame
[Chorus]
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again
[Verse 2]
The Bmcloser I get the harder it is
I'm nDervous and I'm tired of this
F#mTired of digging up the ground for Eclues
Like the Bmboy who waited for so long
I'm Dtired of being all this strong
F#mI need these promises from Eyou
[Chorus]
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again
[Verse 3]
BmDon't say anything at all
UnDless you mean it mean it all
I F#mcan't get up from another fallE  
Don't Bmhold my hand unless it's right
Stop Dshowing me things that are out of sight
F#mHolding me in the nighEt
Yeah
[Chorus]
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again
Promise Bmme, promise Dme, promise F#mme
I'm Eready to love again

F#m

[Verse 1]

There's a boy in a garden all alone

Reminds me a story of my own

F#m E

Waiting around and a promise never came

He's wondering what he's done wrong

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

I'm ready to love again

Bm D F#m

Promise me, promise me, promise me

I'm ready to love again

[Verse 2]

The closer I get the harder it is

I'm nervous and I'm tired of this

F#m E

Tired of digging up the ground for clues

Like the boy who waited for so long

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

I'm ready to love again

Bm D F#m

Promise me, promise me, promise me

I'm ready to love again

[Verse 3]

Don't say anything at all

Unless you mean it mean it all

F#m E

I can't get up from another fall

Don't hold my hand unless it's right

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

I'm ready to love again

Bm D F#m

Promise me, promise me, promise me

I'm ready to love again
