Verse 2:
D
But I love you,
      A
How I love you,
       G                                   D
I have turned my back, left you last but I love you.


Verse 3:
    Bm                A                G
Oh, setting sun don't sink before I've found my heart,
Bm                  A                 G
Heart don't give up now while there's still time,
Bm                   A
Time don't beat your old retreat
E
Stay a little while with me
G                                D        G  Bm  G
'Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye


Verse 4:
       D
I have waited,
       A
I have waited,
        G                              D
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,
     G                                  D
Just altars gathering dust while we bow to them.


Verse 6:
    Bm                   A                G
Oh, night bring all your shadows and your silence,
Bm             A             G
Silence make a hostage of my mind,
Bm                 A
Mind bring on your trickery,
E
Black dogs nip on at my heels,
G                                D        G  Bm  G
'Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye.


Chorus:
      Bm A G
Swing low,
      Bm A G
Sail high,
      Bm A E
Swing low,
G    D G Bm G
Sail high.


Verse 7:
       D
I have failed you,
       A
I have failed you,
     G                          D
I've closed my heart and I have failed you.


Verse 8:
      D
But I love you,
      A
How I love you,
       G                            D
All my days will rearrange to say I love you.


Verse 9:
    Bm                A                G
Oh, setting sun don't weep for all the things you lose,
Bm               A               G
Morning comes as sure as it must die,
Bm            A
Dying is such mystery,
E
Yet I wonder will it be,
G                    A           D        G
When I've looked the whole thing in the eye.
