Poems, Prayers, And Promises Tab por John Denver

[Intro]
 
E        A    E* A* E*
 
[Verse]
 
E                               A            E
I've been lately thinking about my life's time
E                                     A
All the things I've done and how it's been
    E                         A         E
And I can't help believing in my own mind
  E                             A
I know I'm gonna hate to see it end
     E                       A                E
I've seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain
E                              A
Spent a night or two all on my own
     E                          A                  E
I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends
    E                              A
And spent a time or two in my own home
 
[Chorus]
 
      A              B7              E                A
And I have to say it now it's been a good life all in all
            E              C#m             F#m     B
It's really fine to have a chance to hang around
    A                B7       E                 A
And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
             E                  C#m          F#m            B    Bsus4  B
While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass the pipe around
 
            A                     G#m          A                E
And talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
    E              Emaj7             A              B
How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care
    A                    G#m          F#m           E
How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow
    E              Emaj7              A           B    Bsus4   B*
And what about our dreams and all the memories we share

[Verse]
 
    E                              A                   E
The days they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long
    E                                 A
And time around me whispers when it's cold
    E                            A                    E
The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile
   E                               A
It turns me on to think of growing old
    E                                        A                    E
For though my life's been good to me there's still so much to do
   E                             A
So many things my mind has never known
    E                           A                E
I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away
    E                                 A
And dance across the mountains on the moon
 
[Chorus]
 
      A              B7              E                A
And I have to say it now it's been a good life all in all
            E              C#m             F#m    B
It's really fine to have a chance to hang around
    A                B7       E                 A
And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
             E                  C#m          F#m            B    Bsus4   B
While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass the pipe around
 
            A                     G#m          A                E
And talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
    E              Emaj7             A              B
How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care
    A                    G#m          F#m         E
How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow
    E              Emaj7              A           B    Bsus4   B*
And what about our dreams and all the memories we share
