Intro
[D] [D]
[D]I know that fan is moving [Bm]air,
[Bm]I can see it [D]in your hair,
But [Am]I can't bear to [C]breathe it in some[Bm]how,
..I'll rise and [Am]fall with you
[C]'Cause you can't fail me [D]now,
..I'll rise and [Am]fall with you
[C]'Cause you can't fail me [D]now.[D]

VERSE 2
[D]The salt is sweet u[Bm]pon my mouth,
[Bm]Dark throws sparks a[D]gainst my house,
The [Am]stain of love's a [C]smudge upon my [Bm]brow,[Bm]
[Am]But you see through me,
[C]And you can't fail me [D]now.[D]
[Am]You see right through me
[C]And you can't fail me [D]now.[D]

VERSE 3
[C]I've bit off more than [Am]I can chew,
[Em]It's something that I [G]tend to do
When [Dm]fewer words are [F]what we need, and [Am]how.[Am]
[Am]You bite my tongue
And [C]you can't fail me [D]now,[D]
[Am]I ran to the rail,
And [C]you can't fail me [D]now.[D]

BRIDGE
[F]I've lost the thread a[G]mong the vines,
And [C]hung myself in [Am]story lines,
[F]That tell the tales I never would a[C]llow.
God [F]knows the name of [G]every bird,
[C]That fills my mind like [Am]angry words,
[F]But you know all my secret heart a[G]vows…….
#
VERSE 4
[C]We're taught to love the [Am]worst of us,
[Em]And mercy more than [G]life but trust me
[Dm]Mercy's just a warning [F]shot across the [Am]bow,[Am]
[Dm]I live for yours
[F]And you can't fail me [C]now,
[Dm]I live for your mercy...[F][C]
[Em]You can't fail me [Am]now,[Am]
[F]You can't [G]fail me [C]now.
