Am         F             C
We took an oath in those lines
         Am          F              C
Me in my tie and you all dressed in white
Am       F                C
When the band played 'Hey Now'
             Am         F           C
Our families danced celebrating our vows
       Am               F
Nobody loved you like I did
                 C
Thought you’d be mother to my kid
           Am                 F                C
But it all changed when I saw you with someone else
NC
Good lord good lord good lord

[Chorus 1]

Am       F              C
You made all those promises
                           Am
But you broke them like my heart
       F                     C
Saying things like darling I do
                  Am
Until death do us apart
         F                    C
Now that times run out on our love
        G                  Am
I gotta leave these vows behind
          F          C
They were empty promises

[Verse 2]

Am        F              C
You would steal me every night
                Am          F           C
In our city our home as new husband and wife
            Am                F
Drinking in fitzroy pubs till two
              C
Singing those fleetwood songs with you
           Am                     F            C
But it all changed when I saw you with someone else

Am       F              C

But you broke them like my heart
       F                     C
Saying things like darling I do
                  Am
Until death do us apart

Now that times run out on our love
        G                  Am
I gotta leave these vows behind
          F          C
They were empty promises
                               Am        F
Good lord good lord good lord

[Bridge 1]

C                      Am        F
I fell so hard to my knees
C                          Am     F
My eyes said no this can'€™t be
C                          Am     F
Who was that guy, he ain'€™t me
C
Good lord good lord good lord

[Chorus 3]

Am       F              C

But you broke them like my heart

Saying things like darling I do
