                    The Promise    (Mike Pinder)

     The first book, ever written, was a symbol of our home
     Oh sweet, loving music, I hear your tender call

                      D7 (xx0212@1)             Gm (355333@1) Gm7      Eb (x43121@3)    To help us learn to recognise, so we can understand
     It came from solar heaven, where our life wave was born
     To me you are a river, pure love your waterfall

   Gm (355333@1)         Gm7        C (x32010@1)            F (133211@1)             Bb (x1333x@1)    That life holds many secrets, they stand before our doors
     We came in ships a-singing, the praise of one above
     A tide forever bathing, a rough and rocky shore

                      D7 (xx0212@1)                Gm (355333@1)  Gm7          C (x32010@1)/  /  /
     Admit the ones you're hiding now, so you may know them all
     Like children in a garden, our hearts were full of love
     Please take us on a journey, so we can learn some more

     They filled my soul, with music of the spheres
     I dream by day, I dream by night

     It's been my goal for 9 long years, to write this song
     Through coloured rays I feel your might, and now I claim my right
