A              D    A
Josie, I won't fail ya
             E            A
I won't fail you, have no fear
                       D    A
As the tide of dawn is sleeping
         E                A
Over the land, the day is near


[Verse 2]
A                    D   A
The long breezes are blowin'
         E         A
From the sky, as I recall
                    D    A
How did you come to love me
                E          A
When you didn't love me at all?


[Verse 3]
               D    A
Josie, I won't fail ya
       E               A
As she lies here on my breast
                      D    A
In the night I think about her
       E            A
In the day I get no rest


[Verse 4]
                      D  A
God bless you darling Josie
                    E                   A
With your sparklin' eyes, so bright and clear
               D    A
Josie, I won't fail ya
             E            A
I won't fail you, have no fear


[Verse 5]
               D    A
Josie, I won't fail ya
             E            A
I won't fail you, have no fear
               D    A
Josie, I won't fail ya
                 E                  A
Give me one more chance, the day is near
