[Intro 1]
[Am][D][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]We're all at the mercy
Of the 7 deadly sins
We're all at the mercy
Of the elements in this world we're in

[Verse 2]
We're all at [Am]the mercy
Of each other's little whims
And we're all at the mercy
Of the little man within

[Verse 3]
Show no [D]mercy, no more mercy
For this [Am]little man within
[D]We're all at the mercy
Of the [Am]little man within

[Verse 4]
Hey [D]mister how did you fit
Into the [Am]same shoes as him?
No more [C]mercy, mo more mercy
Show no [D]mercy, no more mercy
For the little man [Am]within

[Verse 5]
[Am]
He tears up all the countryside
Stops when he should begin
He drowns when he tries to walk on water
But he never learns to swim

[Verse 6]
He's an [D]animal but he thinks he's God
Get[Am]s him mixed up with him
And [D]we're all at the mercy
Of this [Am]little man within

[Verse 7]
He was [D]doing fine in 39
Thank [Am]God he did not win
He kept [D]playing on his fiddle
As he [Am]watched old Rome cave in

[Verse 8]
He sold [D]love away from his
children's hearts
And [Am]told them it was sin
Now we're [C]all at the mercy,
we're [D]all at the mercy
Of that little man with[Am]in

[Verse 9]
[Am]
Now he's sitting in the gardens
As the acid rain comes in
He got it covered full of rhino heads
And boots of leopard skin

[Verse 10]
He got the [Am]means,
he make the harvest high
But you can count those
hungry people die
We're all at the mercy
Of the greedy man within

[Verse 11]
So [D]if you're feeling lonely, baby
[Am]If you're feeling blue
If you [D]listen to your little friend
You know he'll [Am]tell you what to do

[Verse 12]
But if you hear [D]his words
and you get confused
Start be[Am]lieving they're all true
Then you [C]have just been fooled again
Who said we [Am]won't [D]get fooled again?
By the little man [Am]within

[Verse 13]
[Am]
He might recognize the great one
He might understand what's good
But he believes that he can never live
The way they say he should

[Verse 14]
So he [D]puts them in the asylum
And he just [Am]throws away the key
He [D]keeps the deep freeze inside you
He keeps the deep freeze inside you
And he puts the light in me
[Am]

[Verse 15]
[Am]So show no mercy[D], no more mercy
For [Am]the little man within
We're [D]all at the mercy
Of this [Am]little man within

[Verse 16]
Hey sis[D]ter, how did fit
Into the [Am]same shoes as him?
Show no [C]mercy, show no mercy
Show no [D]more mercy, no more mercy
For the little man within
[Am]

[Verse 17]
Gonna kill, kill the little man within
Gonna kill, kill the little man within
Gonna kill the little man within
We've got to kill,
kill the little man within, kill

[Outro 1]
Gonna kill the little man within
[Am][Am]
[Am]
