Mercy

[Intro]
Dm F Am G 2x


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


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


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


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


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


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


[Bridge]
   Dm             
  Consuming all the
  Am
air inside my lungs
C                G  
Ripping all the skin

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

from off my bones
Dm              Am
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
        C            G
I would gladly do it twice


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