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