Don’t Fail me now
Music and Lyrics by Ryan Adams
Charted by J. Lyons
Intro x2
Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes
Kindle the wood and prepare the fire
And don't fail me now
Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened soul
Kindle the wood and get ready to roll
And don't fail me now
Just don't fail me now
You don't do me right
You don't do me right
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight?
(Intro x 2)
Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened soul
Bundle up my things and get ready to roll
And don't fail me now
Oh Mary, oh mother of all that is near
Lead me to freedom from my kingdom of fear
And don't fail me now
Just don't fail me now
You don't do me right
You don't do me right
Why you do me wrong when the rope gets tight?
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
When the rope gets tight
Why you do me wrong, why you do me wrong?
When the rope gets tight
(Intro x2)
