Mercy on my grave Chords

Lyrics & chords

Intro & chord circle: [Am7][Dm7][Em7][Am7]

1. I walked this [Am7] road with fire in my [Dm7] hands
Every sin I’ve [Em7] sown now stains this [Am7] land
Ain’t no preacher callin’ my [Dm7] name
Ain’t no [Em7] savior to take my [Am7] blame

Chorus: Oh [Am7] Lord, have mercy on my [Dm7] grave
I’ve [Em7] run too long, too far to [Am7] save
Let the rain fall down, wash my sins [Dm7] away
Oh [Em7] Lord, have mercy on my [Am7] grave

2. I hear the [Am7] wind, it speaks in [Dm7] tongues
It tells me [Em7] time has come [Am7] undone
A shadow waits where the gallows [Dm7] stand
With a rope in [Em7] his hands and blood on the [Am7] sand

Chorus: Oh [Am7] Lord, have mercy on my [Dm7] grave
I’ve [Em7] run too long, too far to [Am7] save
Let the rain fall down, wash my sins [Dm7] away
Oh [Em7] Lord, have mercy on my [Am7] grave

3. The dust will [Am7] settle, the sky [Dm7] burns red
I’ll lay my [Em7] soul where the lost men [Am7] tread
If heaven waits, it don’t wait for [Dm7] me
Just the howlin’ [Em7] wind and an empty [Am7] dream

Chorus: Oh [Am7] Lord, have mercy on my [Dm7] grave
I’ve [Em7] run too long, too far to [Am7] save
Let the rain fall down, wash my sins [Dm7] away
Oh [Em7] Lord, have mercy on my [Am7] grave
