"Don't Fail Me Now"
(Ryan Adams / John P. Bowersock / Jon Graboff / Brad Pemberton / Catherine Popper)

Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened eyes
Kindle the wood and prepare the fires
And don't fail me know
Oh gal, oh gal, with your darkened soul
Kindle the wood and get ready to roll
Just don't fail me now
And 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

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
