[CAPO 3RD FRET]
A D A
I had dreams that were bigger than the Montana sky
A D
And we were gonna do great in Great Falls
E E/F# E
I just knew we were this time
D
But when winter finally broke, so were we
A D
You'll never know how bad that hurt
A E
'Cause this ain't what I meant
Esus A
When I promised you the world


A
I lost the farm in Kansas
D A
Along with a lot of pride


Then I almost lost my life
D E Esus E
Down in that West Virginia mine
D
And that motel room in Memphis
A D
Was a long way from diamonds and pearls
A
And that sure ain't what I meant
E Esus A A7
When I promised you the world



Bm
I swear your love is stronger
D A
Than any dream of mine I've ever drug you through
Bm
And I swear I wasn't lyin'
D E E/F# E
They just never did come true
A
You've always bet on this old gambler
D A D
Every time I gave the wheel a whirl
A
But this ain't what I meant


E Esus A
When I promised you the world

[REPEAT INTRO THEN GO TO 3RD VERSE]



Now this Shreveport sun is settin'

On another broken dream of mine

And I guess that mansion on the hill

Is pretty hard to see tonight

But as long as there's a breath of life in me

I'm gonna get it for you, girl

'Cause this ain't what I meant

When I promised you the world


I swear your love is stronger

Than any dream of mine I've ever drug you through

And I swear I wasn't lyin'

They just never did come true

You've always bet on this old gambler

Every time I gave the wheel a whirl

But this ain't what I meant

When I promised you the world


No, this sure ain't what I meant

When I promised you the world
