Promises - The Morning Benders

This tab is a basic outline of the song. There are many arpeggios and
random riffs being played by the 2nd guitar. This tab is a good starting
point, though.
Intro/Main Riff
--Intro--
*Main Riff x2*
--Verse--
*Main Riff x2*
This spirit is holding us down,
We shit our shoulders in deep.
Pulling us to the light,
Toasted our backs in the sun.
And I waited to hear the next call,
We got all our ears pressed against the wall.
--Verse 2--
*Main Riff x2*
But now our days are set straight,
We're seeing it all eye to eye.
The balance is still chasing after,
Just hanging on as you walk by.
And they say it's only natural,
They say we're coming along just fine.
But I can't help thinking we grew up too fast,
And I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has.
--Bridge--
Children you will, be cared for at once,
And wanted our arms like, promises plucked from above.
*Main Riff x2*
--Verse 3-- (Same as second verse)
This world is only getting smaller,
The choices aren't ours to be made.
And I feel like wasting my days,
I feel like wasting my days.
And I've seen what's coming on,
And I can't say it will all be fine.
And I can't help thinking we grew up too fast,
No I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
And I know, I know, I know this won't last, a second longer than it has.
--Outro--
*Main Riff x4*
