Mercy

[Intro]
A#m C# Fm D# 2x


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


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


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


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


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


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


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

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

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


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