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
F#m D E
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms
A D
The skin under my finger tips
A D
Honeysuckle of her lips
A D F#m
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
[Chorus 1]
D E
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
F#m D E
We poured the wine until our cup ran over
A D
Unfolding like the mystery
A D
Inside of her like poetry
A D F#m
F# thousand horses running through my veins
[Chorus 1]
D E
Mercy, mercy what else can I say
A D A D A D
But Amen. Amen Amen
[Verse 3]
F#m D
I laid down in her garden
F#m D
Naked on her floor
F#m D
Windows up, the curtains blowing
F#m D
She don't lock the door
[Bridge]
F#m D A E F#m D A E
Amen, Amen
[Verse 4]
A D
At the banquet table
A D
F# beggar at a feast
A D
I felt her tongue between my lips
A D
And I forgot to breath
F#m D E
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]

Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
D E
Mercy, mercy, I’ll kneel down and pray
A D A D
Amen, Amen
