Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I know we [D]don't see eye to eye
We've let angry hearts [A]flare [C]and [G]the
bitter words [D]fly
The common ground we used to share
Is harder [F#m]to find but I belie[G]ve
that it's still there.
[D]

[Verse 2]
I don't know if now is the time
To surrender [A]the silence [C]between
your heart and [G]mine
But the [D]love that I've [Em]chosen
cries [D]out to [G]be spoken
[Em]Leaving the [D]heartache [G]be hind.

[Verse 3]
Chorus: We must [A]reach
[G]out [Em]beyond
[G]justice [A]to [D]mercy
Going [G]more than halfway to for[D]give[G]
And though the dis[Bm]tance
seems so [G]far[D]
The love that [G]used to hold
our [D]hearts
Longs to take [G]us [D]beyond
[G]justice to [D]mercy.[G]
[D]

[Verse 4]
It doesn't matter who's to blame
The [A]love that I have for [C]you is still
[G]the same[D]
A tender voice is calling me
To that [A]place of compassion where
[C]hearts run pure and [G]free
Where [D]the hunger for ven[Em]geance
gives [D]way to [G]repentance
Where [Em]love will [D]teach us to [G]see.

[Verse 5]
We can [G]reach out beyond
justice [D]to mercy
Going [G]more than halfway to for[D]give[G]
And thought the [Bm]distance seems [G]so far
[D]The love that use[G]d to
hold [D]our hearts
Longs to take us beyond
[G]justice to [D]mercy.

[Verse 6]
[D]
[A]To mercy, [D]to mercy.

[Verse 7]
[D]
Chorus:
We must [A]reach out bey[G]ond
justice [D]to mercy
Going [A]more than [G]halfway to [D]forgive
[G]And though the distance
[Bm]seem[G]s so f[D]ar
The love that [G]used to hold our [D]hearts
Longs to [Em]take [D]us beyond
[G]justice [D]to mercy...
