Mercy

[Intro]
C#m E G#m F# 2x


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


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


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


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


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


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


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

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

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


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