B B E E

[Verse 1]
E                             A                E              A
I made myself a promise I knew I couldn't keep
     E                A                E          A                 B7
I promised me I wouldn't cry tonight before I sleep
             E                            A                        E                      A
But to think of how you've hurt me and it's more than I can take
                                                   E                 B7      E               B7             E
Now I know that promises and hearts were made to break and break and break
A       E                    B7                            E
Oh promises and hearts were made to break

   B7                                                       E
Promises and hearts were made to be broken
          B7                                          E
But surely not mine at least I was a hopin'
                                                              A
But a hurtin' heart is something I can't learn to face
                                                E                B7        E              B7             E
Now I see that promises and hearts were made to break and break and break
A       E                    B7                            E
Oh promises and hearts were made to break

I promised all of my neighbors no more crying late at night

I promised them I'd go to sleep things are gonna be alright

Oh promises and hearts were made to break
