Mercy

[Intro]
Cm D# Gm F 2x


[Verse]
Cm          D#             Gm
  You've got a hold of me
           F               Cm
Don't even know your power
       D#               Gm
I stand a hundred feet
                F
But I fall when I'm around you


[Pre-Chorus]
Cm       D#             Gm
  Show me an open door
                 F            Cm
Then you go and slam it on me

I can't take anymore
           F
I'm saying baby


[Chorus]
            Cm          D#
Please have mercy on me
        Gm         F
Take it easy on my heart
                      
  Even though you don't
  Cm              D#
mean to hurt me

You keep tearing me apart

Would you please have mercy,

Cm         D#                  Gm
  I'd drive through the night

Just to be near you baby
         D#              Gm
Heart old and testified
             F
Tell me that I'm not crazy


[Pre-Chorus]
Cm              D#          Gm
  I'm not asking for a lot

I'm saying baby

got good intentions
       Gm            F
I need you to set me free
                      Cm   D#

[Bridge]
   Cm             
  Consuming all the

air inside my lungs
A#                F  
Ripping all the skin

from off my bones

I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
        A#            F
I would gladly do it twice
   Cm             
  Consuming all the
  Gm
air inside my lungs

Ripping all the skin

from off my bones
Cm              Gm
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
        A#            F
I would gladly do it twice

mean to hurt me

You keep tearing me apart
                      Cm          D#
Would you please have mercy on me
      Gm              F
I'm a puppet on your string
                    
  And even though you
     Cm              D#
got good intentions
       Gm            F
I need you to set me free
                    
  I'm begging you for
  Cm    D#     Gm     F
mercy, mercy on my heart
                    
  I'm begging you for
  Cm   D#      Gm     F
mercy, mercy on my heart
