[Verse 1]
[Am]Lord, have mercy on my soul[Dm]
For I have walked the sinful [Am]road
That I'm down [E]on my knees
Lord, have mercy on me, [Am]please

[Interlude 1]
[Am]

[Verse 2]
Oh [Am]yeah

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Jesus, I must [Dm]confess
That in all my loneliness
I've for[Am]saken, and I've sinned
Leaving [E]fragments of a man
so broken
[Am]

[Verse 4]
I could tell you what I've done
Or should I tell you where
[Dm]I went wrong?

[Verse 5]
Well, the more that I start to [Am]play
My deceitful, evil [E]ways
Keep on growing stronger [Am]by the day
Oh lord, [Dm]have [Am]mercy on

[Verse 6]
my soul
For I have walked a sin[Dm]ful r[E]oad[Dm]
So I'm gonna get down
on my [Am]knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me [E]free
Lord, [Am]have mer[Dm]cy on me[Am], please
Mother [Dm]Mary full

[Verse 7]
[Am]of grace
In my [E]weakness, [Am]I've[Dm] lost faith
I've been [E]careless,
an[Dm]d I have been [Am]warned
And the devil inside me [E]is torn
God bless [Am]the men that I have scorned
Oh lord, have [Dm]mercy [Am]on

[Verse 8]
my soul
For I have walked the [Dm]sinful road
So I'm gonna get down on my [Am]knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me [E]free
Lord [Am]have mercy [Dm]on me, p[Am]lease

[Verse 9]
[Am]Whoa, whoa, yeah, [Dm]yeah
Whoa, yeah, yeah, oh, oh
[Am]Oh- [E]oh y[Am]eah, yeah, yeah, oh
So [Dm]don't let me

[Verse 10]
[Am]fool around no more
Send your angels down to [Dm]guide
me through that door
Well, I've gone and confessed
my [Am]re grets
And I pray I'm not held in con[E]tempt
I'm so lost,
and I [Am]need you to help me repent

[Verse 11]
Oh lord, have [Am]mercy on my soul
Oh, I'm [Dm]begging,
I'm pleading, I'm needing
I want you to know
So I'm [Am]down upon my knees
Oh [E]lord, I need forgiveness
I need [Am]forgiveness from you
