      Empty Promises
Cass McCombs


Capo 2

D
Like any force of nature you can be controlled, 

The spirit disappears before grab ahold 
                                 G
Say it again i like the sound of that 
   D
Whispers nothings another new toy for the brand


C       G#                    A
Sweet honey tell me where you stand 
D                G#           A
  Empty promises to you from past 


D
Like any force of nature you can be denied 

How much spirit is in the street supplied 
                               G
Over 500 years since the bitch arrived 
D
We still can’t find a decent place to hide 


C         G#                      A
Play the song on through a broken string 
D              G#               A
 Empty promises of hope and things


D
Like any force of nature you are dangerous 

What mortal cannot lose it's spirit thus?
                        G
Smother our mothers generation 
D
Who idleness destroyed our glorious nation 


C         G#           A 
Unk was not sever enough for 
D           G#           A
 Empty promises force-fed in youth to us
