Cory Asbury - The Promise is the Same

[Intro]
G....
 
[Verse]
GThey might say a I'm sinner, if I don't sing "hallelujah"
GmThat I'll be forgotten if every song I sing's not to ya
FBut I find peace and holy ground in a little farmhouse in a no-name town
Gm CWhere we say our prayers each night
 
[Verse]
GMaybe I'm a dreamer, I still get high on hoping
GmI might close my eyes sometimes, but I keep my hands wide open
FI question every word I choose, but the answers all come back to you
Gm CI'm just tryin' to get it right
 
[Chorus]
F GIf I got asked to preach on Sunday, what would my sermon be?
F G CYou cannot hard of hearing, and You're tired of "I'm sorry"
Gm C FForgive me for the countless ways I've tried to climb to grace
Cm Gm F GI'm singin' it all different now,...but the promise is the same
 
[Verse]
GAfter all, I'm human, just skin and bones and pain
GmStill praying for a melody, play out on these six strings
FI wonder if I'm good enough, and if I'll ever measure up
Gm CBut I'm tryin to get it right
 
[Chorus]
F GIf I got asked to preach on Sunday, what would my sermon be?
F G CYou cannot hard of hearing, and You're tired of "I'm sorry"
Gm C FForgive me for the countless ways I've tried to climb to grace
Cm Gm F Gm FI'm singin' it all different now,...but the promise is the same....
Gm CYeah, the promise is the same...
 
[Bridge]
CmAnd it's right there in my children's eyes
Gm FThe truth my wandering tried like hell to hide
 
[Chorus]
F GIf I got asked to preach on Sunday, what would my sermon be?
F G CThat You're not hard of hearing, and You're tired of "I'm sorry"
Gm C FSo forgive me for the countless ways I've tried to climb to grace
Cm Gm FI'm singin' it all different now...
Cm Gm FI pray they understand somehow
GThat the promise is the same
 
[Outro]
GmYeah, the promise is the same
F GYeah, the promise is the same...
