Have Mercy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C][Dm][D][Esus4][E][G]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Ships
are moving closer to the shoreline
And [D]we're laughing in the face
of [Dm]loaded gun[C]s[Am]
[G]I s[Am]aw it on the news,
we ain't got no worry
But [Dm]it won't be [D]in the paper
when D [Dm]Day comes

[Verse 2]
Lord, Have [Am]Mercy[F]
For [G]we know not [Am]what we do
Have [F]Mercy
We've for[G]gotten to [Am]be afraid
of you
[C][Dm][D]

[Verse 3]
[Esus4][E]
[G]Who[Am] can solve the problems of a nation
We cure the symp[D]toms but
[Dm]we're killed by the dis[D]ease
[Am]I fe[G]el I'v[Am]e more
than made my contribution
But [D]I hope there's room in
heaven for my ego and me
[Dm]Lord, Have

[Verse 4]
[Am]Mercy[F]
For [G]we know not [Am]what we do
Have [F]Mercy
We've for[G]gotten to [Am]be afraid of you
Have [F]Mercy
[G]Lend us your hand
[Am]Lord, Have Mercy
[F]Give us jus[G]t anoth[Am]er
chance
[C][D]

[Verse 5]
[Em][F]
Too many coaches on
the side[Am]line[F]
Too many keepers in [Am]the zoo
[F]How will we know we've
passed the dead[Am]line
[D]Give us the strength to stand [Bm]or[Am][C][Am][C][Am]
[C][Am][D][Am]
[F][Am][F][Am]
[F]fal[Am]l[D]
[Bm]God in heaven, Have [E]Mercy [Am]on us all

[Verse 6]
The [Am]ships are even closer to the shoreline
Now [D]we're playing in
a madman's [Dm]house [D]of fun
[Am]I read it in the news
we ain't got no worry
But [D]it won't be in the paper
when D Day comes
[Dm]Lord,

[Verse 7]
[Am]Have[F] mer[G]cy[Am][F]
