                          (A)      G 
Everything I've learned I have forgotten 
                                          D 
Everything I've forgotten looks just like new 
                              G                A 
I pulled the ends out for the tie that binds 
                        D 
To keep my promise with you 


         G 
With my eyes on the prize 
                D 
And my mind on you 
         E7 
I put my pride on the line 
               A        A7 
My whole life too 

                               G 
Now anything you ask me for is yours 
                                          D 
Now say the word and I'll lay it at your feet 
                                 G            A 
I'll meet the payments down the line somehow 
                               D       D7 
If you keep your promise with me 

         G 
With my eyes on the prize 
                D 
And my mind on you 
          E7 
I put my pride on the line 
               A          A7 
My whole life too 



                                         G 
You say, take your axe and fashion me a kind of swing 
                                          D 
Walkin' blues have played a number on my feet 
                                G               A 
I'll dance whatever dance you need to dance 
                                 D              G 
'Cause you keep you promise with me 
                   A          D 
You'll keep your promise with me 
G                 A 
You'll keep your promise 
G                 A 
You'll keep your promise 
G                A            D 
You'll keep your promise with me
