[Verse 1]
D
I have failed you,
A
I have failed you,
GD
I have lost my way, lost my nerve, I've failed you.
[Verse 2]
D
But I love you,
A
How I love you,
GD
I have turned my back, left you last but I love you.
[Verse 3]
BmAG
Oh, setting sun don't sink before I've found my heart,
BmAG
Heart don't give up now while there's still time,
BmA
Time don't beat your old retreat
E
Stay a little while with me
GDGBmG
'Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye
[Verse 4]
D
I have waited,
A
I have waited,
GD
For the big reveal, the even keel I've waited.
[Verse 5]
D
But there's no one, who
A
Makes it all come true,
GD
Just altars gathering dust while we bow to them.
[Verse 6]
BmAG
Oh, night bring all your shadows and your silence,
BmAG
Silence make a hostage of my mind,
BmA
Mind bring on your trickery,
E
Black dogs nip on at my heels,
GDGBmG
'Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye.
[Chorus]
BmAG
Swing low,
BmAG
Sail high,
BmAE
Swing low,
GDGBmG
Sail high.
[Verse 7]
D
I have failed you,
A
I have failed you,
GD
I've closed my heart and I have failed you.
[Verse 8]
D
But I love you,
A
How I love you,
GD
All my days will rearrange to say I love you.
[Verse 9]
BmAG
Oh, setting sun don't weep for all the things you lose,
BmAG
Morning comes as sure as it must die,
BmA
Dying is such mystery,
E
Yet I wonder will it be,
GADG
When I've looked the whole thing in the eye.
[Outro]
BmG
Sail high,
DG
Swing low,
BmGDG
Sail high,
