The Promise (Mike Pinder)

% The world, is full of people, some are trying to lend a hand
The first book, ever written, was a symbol of our home
Oh sweet, loving music, I hear your tender call
D7 Gm Gm7 Eb
To help us learn to recognise, so we can understand
It came from solar heaven, where our life wave was born
To me you are a river, pure love your waterfall
Gm Gm7 C F Bb
That life holds many secrets, they stand before our doors
We came in ships a-singing, the praise of one above
A tide forever bathing, a rough and rocky shore
D7 Gm Gm7 C / / /
Admit the ones you're hiding now, so you may know them all
Like children in a garden, our hearts were full of love
Please take us on a journey, so we can learn some more

Of me and mine, and you and yours
The pillar of fire, a luminous cloud

Just let them be and all the doors will open wide
I know I've seen them and they do make a sound

To paintings on the rocks, gigantic Stonehenge blocks
They filled my soul, with music of the spheres
I dream by day, I dream by night
(instr.)........................
Em A F
The pyramids and the sphinx, the temples are the links
It's been my goal for 9 long years, to write this song
Through coloured rays I feel your might, and now I claim my right
(instr.).........................................................
C# Bb F C Dm
To lead us through, our past, so we might find ourselves at last
So I can say, exactly what, I believe is coming down
A son of God, eternal life, the promise of your rainbow light Go $
