City And Colour - A Little Mercy

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Em A
(x2)

[Verse]
Em
The day begins to blur
A
Under this bruised light
Em
Within the beast still stirs
A
Am I unfit to guide?
Em
And now I’m weeping towards the sky
A
For what seeps back into the earth
Em
Are we not supposed to love
A
In fear of losing someone?
Em
Are we too afraid to feel
A
Too many wounds to heal?
Em
Will they ever heal?
A
Will they ever heal?

[Chorus]
Em A
Cause we don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A
We don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A Em A
Just a little mercy, no

[Interlude]
Em A
No
Em A
No

[Verse]
Em
You cannot live the life
A
The life left behind you
Em
You cry out loud with all your might
A
But no one will hear you
Em
There will be desolation
A
We will throw ourselves into the fire
Em
But the sooner love is gone
A
The ghosts will begin to haunt
Em
But I know the beauty lies
A
In the dawn’s early light
Em
Well, it gives and gives in healing waves
A
But that’s not enough
A
No, it’s not enough

[Chorus]
Em A
Cause we don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A
We don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A Em A
Just a little mercy, no

[Outro]
Em A Em A
No
Em A
Just a little mercy
Em A
Just a little mercy
Em A
Just a little mercy
