[Intro]
Am C Em D 2x
[Verse]
Am C Em
You've got a hold of me
D Am
Don't even know your power
C Em
I stand a hundred feet
D
But I fall when I'm around you
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C Em
Show me an open door
D Am
Then you go and slam it on me
C Em
I can't take anymore
D
I'm saying baby
[Chorus]
Am C
Please have mercy on me
Em D
Take it easy on my heart
Am C
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
Em D
You keep tearing me apart
Am C
Would you please have mercy,
Em D
mercy on my heart
Am C
Would you please have mercy,
Em D
mercy on my heart
[Verse]
Am C Em
I'd drive through the night
D Am
Just to be near you baby
C Em
Heart old and testified
D
Tell me that I'm not crazy
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C Em
I'm not asking for a lot
D Am
Just that you're honest with me
C Em
My pride is all I got
D
I'm saying baby
[Chorus]
Am C
Please have mercy on me
Em D
Take it easy on my heart
Am C
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
Em D
You keep tearing me apart
Am C
Would you please have mercy on me
Em D
I'm a puppet on your string
Am C
And even though you got good intentions
Em D
I need you to set me free
Am C
Would you please have mercy,
Em D
mercy on my heart
Am C
Would you please have mercy,
Em D
mercy on my heart
[Bridge]
Am Em
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
G D
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
Am Em
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
G D
I would gladly do it twice
Am Em
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
G D
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
Am Em
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
G D
I would gladly do it twice
[Chorus]
Am C
Please have mercy on me
Em D
Take it easy on my heart
Am C
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
Em D
You keep tearing me apart
Am C
Would you please have mercy on me
Em D
I'm a puppet on your string
Am C
And even though you got good intentions
Em D
I need you to set me free
Am C Em D
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy on my heart
Am C Em D
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy on my heart
