Artist: Starkid Song: If I Fail You Album: Black Friday Chords by: Alex Besio [Intro] D/F# Dadd9/F# [Verse]
E/D
What is this thing in my hand?

        E
Does it breathe or understand?

    E/F#                       E/G#                   Bsus4
The things I went through, The things Tim went through    for it

        Dsus2
I submit

    E
The hell I've been thinking?

   E/F#
My heart is so empty

E/G#             E/A                    Gmaj7(add13)
Everyone's dying,   and that includes me  too

      Asus4           A
I was gone long before you
[Chorus]
D                           Bm7
If I fail you one more time,  the punishment won't match the crime

       Asus4                                         G(add9)
'Cause there's no pain that could ever explain how I let you down

    D                                Bm7
And if I fail you one more time, the mountain I would have to climb

   F#m                                  Asus4
Is so high up, that I would have to die

A  Em
Oh I

  D/F#                 Bbmaj7
I failed you once, and I will fail again
[Interlude] D(b5) D5 E/D x2 [Verse]
        E/D
Does he see a father?

            E
Who doesn't even bother?

   E/F#                E/G#            Bsus4
To get to know him, to really know his soul?

       Dsus2
and his role

E
Maybe he's happy

  E/F#
I wouldn't have any idea

E/G#               E/A                  Gmaj7(add13)
Maybe the route is simply in ending the drought

        F#m/A      F#sus4
Why not find out?
[Chorus]
D                               Bm7
If I fail you one more time, or if I fail to recognize

Asus4                                 G(add9)
What you need, or when you need me to be around

    D                            Bm7
And if I fail to hear your voice,   or if I make the easy choice

    F#m                                   Asus4
The world would tear asunder, drowning all

A  Em
Oh I

  D/F#                 Bbmaj7              E/D
I failed you once, and I would fail again
[Bridge]
A11                                                  Dsus2 D5 Dsus2 D5 Dsus2
When I turned nine, I went to the ninety-nine cent store

  A11                                                   Dsus2 D5 Dsus2 D5 Dsus2
I wanted a pop gun, that looked like they used in the corps

Bbsus2            Fadd9              Csus4 C5
Knowing my dad, I knew the chance was        slim

   Bbsus2           Fadd9       Gsus4/C             G
He got me a cheaper dagger, but deep down it didn't matter

F#m                          Em7 D/F# G Gsus2
I was with him. Where's Tim?

                 Em7   D/F#  G
She used to like bars

                                            Em7   D/F#  G
She liked to loosen me up just to get at my heart

                                             Bbadd9
She'd poke at my wounds just to see what I'd  say

    Bbadd9/A                  Em7  D/F# G
And now, she's doing the same

         E5
and then flash
N.C. and then flash [Interlude] E Eadd11/F# E/G# E/A Bsus4 D6/9 [Chorus]
E                           C#m7
If I fail you one more time,  the punishment won't match the crime

       Bsus4                                         Aadd9
'Cause there's no pain that could ever explain how I let you down

    E                                C#m11
And if I fail you one more time, the mountain I would have to climb

   G#m                                  Bsus4
Is so high up, that I would have to die

B  F#m
Oh I

  E/G#                 Cmaj7          E   E/D E
I failed you once, but I won't fail again
