(D major) (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (B minor) (G major)
Verse 1
I have failed (D major) you,
I have failed (A major) you,
I (G major) have lost my way,
lost my nerve and failed (D major) you,
But I love you, how (A major) I love you,
I (G major) have turned my back,
left you last, but I (D major) love you.
Verse 2
Oh, set (B minor) ting sun,
don't sink (A major) before I've found (G major) my heart;
(B minor) Heart, don't give up now (A major)
while there's still (G major) time;
(B minor) Time, don't beat your old (A major) retreat,
Stay (E major) a little while with me,
'til (G major) I've looked the whole thing in (D major) the eye.
Interlude 1
(D major) (G major) (B minor) (G major)
Verse 3
I have (D major) waited, I have waited (A major)
For the big (G major) reveal,
the even keel, I've (D major) waited,
But there's no one who
makes it all come (A major) true,
Just (G major) altars gathering dust
while we bow to (D major) them.
Verse 4
Oh, night, (B minor) bring all your shad (A major) ows
and your (G major) si (B minor) lence;
Silence, make a hostage (A major) of (G major) my mind;
Verse 5
(B minor) Mind, bring on your (A major) (E major) trickery;
Black dogs, nip on at my heels,
'til (G major) I've looked the whole thing in (D major) the eye.

Swing (B minor) low,

(A major) (E major) sail (G major) (D major) high. (G major)
(B minor) (G major)
Verse 7
I have failed (D major) you, I have failed (A major) you,
I have (G major) closed my heart, I have (D major) failed you,
But I love you, how (A major) I love you,
(G major) All my days were rearranged
to say I (D major) love you.
Verse 8
Oh, set (B minor) ting sun,
don't weep (A major) for all the (G major) things you lose,
(B minor) Morning comes as sure (A major) as it must die. (G major)
Dy (B minor) ing is such (A major) mystery,
Yet (E major) I wonder will it be,
(G major) when I've looked the whole (A major) thing in (D major) the eye? (G major)
Verse 9
Swing low, sail (B minor) high, (G major)
Swing (D major) low, (G major) sail (B minor) high. (G major)
