Verse
D G
Last night I had a dream
D G
The dream I had was true
D G
I fell through the stars
D G
Went walking on the moon
Bm G A
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms
D G
The skin under my finger tips
D G
Honeysuckle of her lips
D G Bm
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
[Chorus 1]
G A
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?
D G D G D G
But Amen. Amen Amen
[Verse 2]
D G
Last night we were born together
D G
It was like we'd always been
D G
She'll be with me forever
D G
If I don't see her again
Bm G A
We poured the wine until our cup ran over
D G
Unfolding like the mystery
D G
Inside of her like poetry
D G Bm
B thousand horses running through my veins
[Chorus 1]
G A
Mercy, mercy what else can I say
D G D G D G
But Amen. Amen Amen
[Verse 3]
Bm G
I laid down in her garden
Bm G
Naked on her floor
Bm G
Windows up, the curtains blowing
Bm G
She don't lock the door
[Bridge]
Bm G D A Bm G D A
Amen, Amen
[Verse 4]
D G
At the banquet table
D G
B beggar at a feast
D G
I felt her tongue between my lips
D G
And I forgot to breath
Bm G A
We stayed there 'til the candles burned the carpet
D G
Last night I had a dream
D G
The dream I had was true
[Chorus/Outro]
D G Bm
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
G A
Mercy, mercy, I’ll kneel down and pray
D G D G
Amen, Amen
Bm G D A Bm G D A
Amen, Amen
