Andrew Peterson
Intro : C Am F (x2)
Verse 1 :
CAmF
Well I was 19, you were 21, the year we got engaged
CAmF
Everyone said we were much too young, but we did it anyway
GAmC/EF
We got the rings for 40 each from a pawnshop down the road
GAmC/EF
We said our vows and took the leap now 15 years ago
Chorus 1 :
CAmGF
We went dancing in the minefields
CAmGF
We went sailing in the storms
CAm
And it was harder than we dreamed
GF
But I believe that?s what the promise is for
GGFs4 GGus4
(That?s what the promise is for)
Interlude 1 : C Am F
Verse 2 :
C
Well ?I do? are the two most famous last words
AmGF
The beginning of the end
CAmGF
But to lose your life for another I?ve heard is a good place to begin
GAmC/EF
?Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down
GAmC/EF
And I believe it?s an easy price for the life that we have found
Chorus 1 :
CAmGF
We went dancing in the minefields
CAmGF
We went sailing in the storms
CAm
And it was harder than we dreamed
GF
But I believe that?s what the promise is for

(That?s what the promise is for)

?Cause we bear the light of the Son of man
AmGF
So there?s nothing left to fear
CAmGF
So I?ll walk with you in the shadow lands till the shadows disappear

So in the face of this chaos, baby I can dance with you
