OK this is just for a bit of a laugh, I worked some of them out last
night after hearing some girl singing it really well unaccompanied in a
pub.  I thought next week I might grab the guitar and join her. As I say
I've only worked them out to a point, I'll do the rest tonight and I'll
post them if zi get the time.  From memory.

.and wish that it was still last night (the chords aren't placed over
                                         words here, just to let you
                                         know where abouts in the song

A   C#m   D  ??????????????????????????? I put down the guitar and
                                         fell asleep here.


Good melody isn't it? I bet us guitarists could learn a thing or two
about melodic chromatics and key changes from this one. Not a cliche
anywhere. Anyone care to finish it off?

By the way I can't remember if I told you what the song was,
It's by Beverly Craven and it's called Promise me.

Cheers,

Big Toe.
