Mercy Is A Song

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

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

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

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

[Chorus]
        C#m A    E               
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light 
          C#m A
for every soul
E                              
No matter where you've been just 
          C#m  A
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                                 
Heaven is a mansion, a promise in 
      B
the sky
                         C#m       
That one day we will be singing 
                     A
with those angels up on high
                   E               
That old familiar melody, like 
                B
we've known it all along
                   A               
Oh heaven is a mansion and mercy is
     E
 a song
              A                    
Heaven is a mansion and mercy is a 
  E
song
E
Oh tell me, can you hear it?

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