Mercy Is A Song

	  		verse 1 

            E                   B 
Mercy is a song, singing to my heart 
               C#m                    A 
Telling me it's ok, come just as you are 
                 E                                    B 
I never heard a melody, like the one they're singing over me 
                       C#m                      A 
And I just wanna sing along, 'cause mercy is a song 

verse 2 
              E                       B 
Freedom is a choir, swaying back and forth 
                C#m                               A 
Shining in the shadow of a stain glassed Sunday morning 
           E                        B 
Shouting hallelujah, yesterday is gone 
                 A                   E 
Oh freedom is a choir and mercy is a song 

 
        C#m A    E                            C#m A 
Singing ohhhhh, there is a life for every soul 
E                                        C#m  A 
No matter where you've been just come on home 
E                            B 
Let all God's children sing along 
                        A 
Hallelujah chains are gone 
            E 
Mercy is a song 


verse 3 
E                            B 
Guilty is a lie, spoken by a fear 
                C#m                                      A 
Saying after what you've done, you don't deserve to be free 
                           E                              B 
But I can look him in the eye, and say this time you're wrong 
                    A                       E 
'Cause guilty is a lie, oh but mercy is a song 

 
        C#m A    E                         C#m A 
Singing ohhhhh, there is a life for every soul 
E                                        C#m  A 
No matter where you've been just come on home 
E                            B 
Let all God's children sing along 
                        A 
Hallelujah chains are gone 
            C#m  B 
Mercy is a song 


Post-Chorus 
                 A 
A song of the redeemed 
I want to set free 
                   F#m 
A glimpse of what waits for you and me 

Bridge 

E                                       B 
Heaven is a mansion, a promise in the sky 
                         C#m                            A 
That one day we will be singing with those angels up on high 
                   E                               B 
That old familiar melody, like we've known it all along 
                   A                    E 
Oh heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song 
              A                      E 
Heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song 
E 
Oh tell me, can you hear it? 

 
        C#m A    E                            C#m A 
Singing ohhhhh, there is a life for every soul 
E                                        C#m  A 
No matter where you've been just come on home 
E                            B 
Let all God's children sing along 
                        A 
Hallelujah chains are gone 
            E 
Mercy is a song
