[Verse 1]
Em B7/F# G
If I had nothing to my name
Adim G
But photographs of you
Adim Em C
Rescued from the flame
Em B7/F# G
That is all I would ever need
Adim Em
As long as I can read
G/B C#dim
What’s written on your face
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cmaj7 B11 Em G
The strength that shines behind your eyes
Cmaj7 B11 Em B11
The hope and light that will never die
[Chorus 1]
Em C G D
One promise you made

One promise that always remains
Em Em7 C#dim
No matter the price
Cmaj7 C Cm G
A promise to survive, persevere and thrive
Dsus4 D
As you’ve always done
[Verse 2]
Em B7/F# G
And you said, the poison in the kiss
Adim G
Is the lie upon the lips
Adim Em C
Truer words were never shared
Em B7/F# G
When I feel like lies are all I hear
Adim Em
I pull my memories near
G/B C#dim B11
The one thing they can’t take
[Chorus 2]
Em C G D
And one promise you made
Em C G D
One promise that always remains
Em Em7 C#dim
No matter the price
Cmaj7 C Cm G
A promise to survive, persevere and thrive
Dsus4 D
As you’ve always done
[Bridge]

The books still open on the table
Bb Bb7 Eb
The bells still ringing in the air
Bb Bb7 Ebm B
The dreams still clinging to the pillow
Abm B B7
The song still singing in a prayer
[Verse 3]
Em B7/F# G
And my soul is stretching through the roots
Adim G
To memories of you
Adim Em C
Back through time and space
Em B7/F# G
To carry on the faces and the names
Adim C#dim
And photographs of you
B11 B7
Rescued from the flames
[Chorus 3]
Em C G D
One promise you made
Em C G D
One promise that always remains
Em Em7 C#dim
No matter the price

A promise to survive, persevere and thrive

And dare to rise once more

A promise to survive, persevere and thrive

Fill the world with life

As you’ve always done
