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