E
Cheap perfume and painted faces, fallen angels fill the places
A                                                  E
Where I go when my troubles pull me down
E
And all the lies I know they'll tell, and the time that they will sell me,
F#                                                    B
For a while I'll be the biggest man in town

[Verse 2]
E
Back at home in bed she's crying, for her love for me is dying
A                                                                   E
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
B                                                           A
When the morning sun starts showing, to her bedside I'll be going,
E                         B7                         B                 E
And she'll hold me while I face the morning light

[Chorus]
E
And I'll make promises, promises to change
G#
I'll make her promises, swear I'll rearrange,
A                             
And I'll start giving all the love she needs
B                  A          B
If only she will stay

[Verse 3]
E
And once again she'll reassure me, and I believe her love will cure me
A                                     E
And I'll fall asleep with tears on my face
E
And I know she's just a woman, and her love can't last forever
F#                                                                        B
And someday soon, I know she'll leave without a trace

[Chorus]
E
For broken promises will tear her dreams apart
G#
Just token promises will someday break her heart
A
And for the last time, she'll hold me when I cry
B                                                  A     B               C D E
And while I'm sleeping she'll quietly say goodbye
