Mercy

[Intro]
D#m F# A#m G# 2x


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


[Pre-Chorus]
D#m       F#             A#m
  Show me an open door
                 G#            D#m
Then you go and slam it on me
       F#             A#m
I can't take anymore
           G#
I'm saying baby


[Chorus]
            D#m          F#
Please have mercy on me
        A#m         G#
Take it easy on my heart
                      
  Even though you don't
  D#m              F#
mean to hurt me
         A#m          G#
You keep tearing me apart
                 D#m        F#
Would you please have mercy,
     A#m     G#
mercy on my heart
                 D#m        F#
Would you please have mercy,
     A#m     G#
mercy on my heart


[Verse]
D#m         F#                  A#m
  I'd drive through the night
           G#             D#m
Just to be near you baby
         F#              A#m
Heart old and testified
             G#
Tell me that I'm not crazy


[Pre-Chorus]
D#m              F#          A#m
  I'm not asking for a lot
                 G#              D#m
Just that you're honest with me
        F#             A#m
My pride is all I got
           G#
I'm saying baby


[Chorus]
            D#m          F#
Please have mercy on me
        A#m         G#
Take it easy on my heart
                      
  Even though you don't
  D#m              F#
mean to hurt me
         A#m          G#
You keep tearing me apart
                      D#m          F#
Would you please have mercy on me
      A#m              G#
I'm a puppet on your string
                    
  And even though you
     D#m              F#
got good intentions
       A#m            G#
I need you to set me free
                      D#m   F#
Would you please have mercy,
     A#m     G#
mercy on my heart
                      D#m   F#
Would you please have mercy,
     A#m     G#
mercy on my heart


[Bridge]
   D#m             
  Consuming all the
  A#m
air inside my lungs
C#                G#  
Ripping all the skin

from off my bones
D#m              A#m
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
        C#            G#
I would gladly do it twice
   D#m             
  Consuming all the
  A#m
air inside my lungs
C#                G#  
Ripping all the skin

from off my bones
D#m              A#m
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
        C#            G#
I would gladly do it twice


[Chorus]
            D#m          F#
Please have mercy on me
        A#m         G#
Take it easy on my heart
                      
  Even though you don't
  D#m              F#
mean to hurt me
         A#m          G#
You keep tearing me apart
                      D#m          F#
Would you please have mercy on me
      A#m              G#
I'm a puppet on your string
                    
  And even though you
     D#m              F#
got good intentions
       A#m            G#
I need you to set me free
                    
  I'm begging you for
  D#m    F#     A#m     G#
mercy, mercy on my heart
                    
  I'm begging you for
  D#m   F#      A#m     G#
mercy, mercy on my heart
