Intro: Esus - Esus - Gbm7 - Bsus2

Verse 1:

[Esus]Late last night I awoke in a dream
To the [Bbm7]sound of a voice that was almost a [Gbm7]scream, oh oh [Bsus2]oh
From [Esus]out of the city and out of the street
[Bbm7]Out where the wind hits the cold con[Gbm7]crete, oh oh [Bsus2]oh

Pre-Chorus 1:

[Asus2] It's [E]cold [Asus2] out [E]side,[Asus2] dark [E]ness, your [Bsus2]enemy
[Asus2] No [E]place[Asus2] to [E]hide,[Asus2] the [E]voice said [Gbm7]this to me

Chorus 1:

In your [Asus2]doorways I have shivered
In your alleys I have gone to g[Bsus2]round
[Gbm7]I will be delivered
Some[Bsus2]day I will be mercy [Esus]bound[-][Gbm7][-][Bsus2]

Verse 2:

I [Esus]dreamed again it was West L.A.
On a c[Bbm7]rowded street on a hot summer da[Gbm7]y, she was a[Bsus2]lone
[Esus]Three months late and beginning to show
In a mi[Bbm7]driff blouse she would soon outgrow
She had [Gbm7]no one to call and no [Bsus2]way home

Pre-Chorus 2:

[Asus2] And [E]in [Asus2] my [E]mind [Asus2] I [E]knew I'd [Bsus2]seen myself
[Asus2] But [E]in [Asus2] our [E]blindness,[Asus2] always [E]seems like [Gbm7]someone else

Chorus 2:

[Asus2]There I was a rag a bone
A remnant in your lost and [Bsus2]found
I [Gbm7]was for once truly alone
[Bsus2]Longing to be mercy [E]bound

Bridge:

And I [C]knew that I would wander as a child
In the forest 'til they[D] found me
And I [C]called out to them but I could not penetrate
The silence all a[E]round me[Gbm7][Bsus2]

Pre-Chorus 3:

[Asus2] And [E]when[Asus2] I [E]wake [Asus2] I [E]know you'll [Bsus2]comfort me
[Asus2] And [E]I [Asus2] won't [E]sleep a[Asus2]gain for [E]an e[Gbm7]ternity

Chorus 3:

But [Asus2]others lie awake at night
In desperation more pro[Bsus2]found
And the [Gbm7]coming of the morning light
[Bsus2]Will not see them mercy [E]bound
And [Asus]some will never [E/Ab]dream again
From [Gbm7]sleeping on the [Bsus2]ground
Just [Asus2]longing to belong
[Bsus2]Dying to be mercy [Asus2]bound
[Gbm7]please don't stop your dreaming
Some[Bsus2]day we'll all be mercy [Esus]bound[Gbm7]
Some[Bsus2]day mercy [Esus]bound
[Gbm7]oohhhh[Bsus2]h, ohhhh[E]hhh
