A D A Josie, I wont fail ya, E A I wont fail you, have no fear, D A As the tide of dawn is sleeping E A over the land, the day is near, 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 didnt love me at all? D A Josie, I wont 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, D A God bless you darling Josie, E A With your sparklin eyes, so bright and clear, D A Josie, I wont fail ya, E A I wont fail you, have no fear, D A Josie, I wont fail ya, E A I wont fail you, have no fear, D A Josie, I wont fail ya, E A Give me one more chance, the day is near.
