-----------------------------
One Promise Too Late
as recorded by Reba McEntire
-----------------------------
CGF
I would have waited forever
CAm
if I'd known that you'd be here.
FCG
We could have shared our lives together
DmFGG7
and held each other close all through the years.
But I met someone before you
and my heart just wouldn't wait,
So no matter how much I adore you
I've got to stand behind this promise that I made.
CHORUS:
AmFC
Where were you when I could have loved you?
AmFGG7
Where were you when I gave my heart away?
FGAmF
All my life, I've been dreaming of you
CGAmF
You came along one promise too late
CGC
You came along one promise too late.
(INSTRUMENTAL)
BRIDGE:
EmAm
I won't say that I'm sorry that I met you.
EmFGG7
I can't have you but I never will forget you.
Where were you when I could have loved you?
Where were you when I gave my heart away?
All my life, darling, I've been dreaming of you.
You came along one promise too late.
You came along one promise too late.
(Repeat)
Notes: Reba sings in another key (I think E)
