Mercy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Am I lost
Gone away
Am I gratefully digging my grave
Do my feet
Fear to run
From the heart of a prison of one

[Verse 2]
Can [C]I change these clothes [Am]I've [D]worn
[B]Shed this old skin [Em]and be reborn
Give [Am]me time
And a peaceful [D]mind
[B]Give me mercy
[Em]

[Verse 3]
Well I've stood in the snow
And I've watched that wildfire grow
Seen the flames catch the wind
And I've felt their heat on my skin

[Verse 4]
But [C]now I feel so [D]small
[B]With my back up aga[Em]inst the wall
Give me [C]time
And a peaceful [D]mind
[B]Give me mercy
[Em]

[Verse 5]
[Am]
I wish I was an [Em]eagle[B]
Floating on the [Em]air[Am]
And I didn't have this
[Em]heavy cross to bear
[B]

[Verse 6]
I've [Em]got scars that still ache
From every misstep from
every mistakes
For every lie I believed
There's a ghost in my
head that won't leave

[Verse 7]
So [C]don't make me confess
[D]Wit[B]h your own cards
[Em]tight to your chest
Give [C]me time[D][B][Em][Am][Em]
[B][Em]
[Am][Em][B][Em]
[C][D][B]
[Em][C]
And a peaceful [D]mind
[B]Give me mercy

[Outro 1]
[Em]
