If A Promise Ain't Enough
Hall and Oates 
Tabbed by Leah Comia

Intro:  A A9 A Dm7  2x

            A9        A       
Don't wanna open your heart
       A9              A                  
You're afraid from the start
       Dm7   
That a new love's gonna get you down,
          A9                   A
There was something you should know
           A9          A
Before you give up and go
        Dm7                      Bm7
I don't believe in a run-around 
                 C#m7 
I just wanted to find myself
     Dm7     C#m7  Bm7
And show you how I feel.

Chorus:
                   Dm7   E
If a promise ain't enough
                    A9 A    2x
Then a touch says everything
                     Dm7    E
Gotta hold you in my arms
                   A9 A    2x
Do you feel what I mean
             Dm7                 E    
Know that my heart just tells me what to say
              C#m7          F#m    
But words can only prove so much
                   Dm7    E
If a promise ain't enough
               A
Hold on to my love.
  
            A9        A    
Though my words can't describe 
        A9           A
How I'm feelin' all inside,
        Dm7 
Does my touch say anything to you,
        A9             A    
I'm not afraid to take time
        A9           A 
'Cause I know you'll find,
         Dm7                       Bm7
That I'm real and my touch is true,
                         C#m7
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
      Dm7     C#m7   Bm7 
And I give it all to you.

(Repeat Chorus)   A Dm7  2x
 
Dm7
Oh yeah 
A      Dm7
Uhmmm.. 
Bm7                       C#m7
Oh, it took a lifetime to find what I want
        Dm7    C#m7 Bm7
I won't let it get away.
(Repeat Chorus)
                   Dm7  E
If a promise ain't enough
 ..... Hold on!

A C#m7 Bm7  E...
If a promise ain't enough
Promises - promises - promises - hold on to my love,
Promises - promises - promises - hold on to my love .....
(Repeat and Fade)
