A Little Mercy

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Em A 
(x2)
 
[Verse]
Em
The day begins to blur
                    A
Under this bruised light
Em
Within the beast still stirs
               A
Am I unfit to guide?
Em
And now I'm weeping towards the sky
          A
For what seeps back into the earth
Em
Are we not supposed to love
             A
In fear of losing someone?
Em
Are we too afraid to feel
           A
Too many wounds to heal?
Em
Will they ever heal?
           A
Will they ever heal?
 
[Chorus]
                         Em                       A
Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
                   Em                       A
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em                   A    Em    A
Just a little mercy, no
 
[Interlude]
Em   A
No
Em   A
No
 
[Verse]
Em
You cannot live the life
                A
The life left behind you
Em
You cry out loud with all your might
                 A
But no one will hear you
Em
There will be desolation
         A
We will throw ourselves into the fire
         Em
But the sooner love is gone
                 A
The ghosts will begin to haunt
                Em
But I know the beauty lies
               A
In the dawn's early light
          Em
Well, it gives and gives in healing waves
                 A
But that's not enough
               A
No, it's not enough
 
[Chorus]
                         Em                       A
Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
                   Em                       A
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em                   A    Em    A
Just a little mercy, no
 
[Outro]
Em  A  Em  A
No
Em                  A
Just a little mercy
Em                  A
Just a little mercy
Em                  A
Just a little mercy
