The Promise Is The Same

Intro:
Db

Verse:
            Db
They might say I'm a sinner, 
if I don’t sing "hallelujah"
            Bbm
That I'll be forgotten if every song
 I sing's not to You
           Gb
But I find peace and holy ground in 
a little farmhouse in a no-name town
                     Bbm                            Ab
Where we say our prayers each night

Verse 2:
   Db
Maybe I’m a dreamer, I still get high on hoping
 Bbm
I might close my eyes sometimes, 
but I keep my hands wide open
 Gb
I question every word I choose, 
but the answers all come back to You
                 Bbm                 Ab
I'm just trying to get it right

Chorus:
                 Gb                   
If I got asked to preach on Sunday, 
              Db
what would my sermon be?
              Gb
That You're not out of hearing 
                      Db                 Ab
and You'rе tired of "I'm sorry"
              Bbm                Ab                 
Forgive me for thе countless 
                     Gb
ways I've tried to climb to grace
             Ebm                            Db/F  Gb
I'm singing it all different now, 
                                         Db
but the promise is the same

Verse 3:
   Db
After all, I'm human,
just skin and bones and pain
             Bbm
Still praying for a melody, 
play out on these six strings
         Gb
I wonder if I’m good enough 
and if I’ll ever measure up
                  Bbm               Ab
But I'm trying to get it right

Chorus:
                 Gb                   
If I got asked to preach on Sunday, 
              Db
what would my sermon be?
              Gb
That You're not out of hearing 
                      Db                 Ab
and You'rе tired of "I'm sorry"
              Bbm                Ab                 
Forgive me for thе countless 
                     Gb
ways I've tried to climb to grace
             Ebm                            Db/F  Gb
I'm singing it all different now, 
                                         Bbm  Gb
but the promise is the same
                                            Bbm  Ab
Yeah, the promise is the same

Bridge:
                  Ebm
And it's right there in my children's eyes
            Db/F                                             Gb
The truth my wandering, tried like hell to hide

Chorus:
                 Gb                   
If I got asked to preach on Sunday, 
              Db

              Gb
That You're not out of hearing 
                      Db                 Ab
and You'rе tired of "I'm sorry"
              Bbm                Ab                 
Forgive me for thе countless 
                     Gb
ways I've tried to climb to grace
             Ebm                            Db/F  Gb
I'm singing it all different now, 

Ending:
        Ebm                           Db/F  Gb
I pray they understand somehow
                                          Db
That the promise is the same
                     Ebm                   Bbm
Yeah, the promise is the same
                                           Gb    Db
Yeah, the promise is the same
