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