D

[Verse 1]
D                          G                   D
I stole the right to live, as if there was no time.
D                         A
I stole the eyes of God, as if those eyes were mine.
D                      G                    D
I took and did infuse, a light that was to shine.

[Chorus]
Bm  A       Bm     G
Oh, mercy. Lord, have pity.
           A                  G              D
I'm only traveling, I don't have no place to go.

[Verse 2]
D                                  G                D
I walked the streets of gold, and heard the silver toungue.
D                              A
I passed out on satan's hill, and my bed on stone.
D                              G         D
Forsaken hearts I wondered, I left them alone.

[Verse 3]
D                           G        D
A long ways goin' out, and have no destiny.
D                         A
A long ways to believe, dreams that come to be.
D                                  G         D
I swear they're true a-bloomin', here before me.

[Chorus]
Bm  A       Bm     G
Oh, mercy. Lord, have pity.
           A                  G              D
I'm only traveling, I don't have no place to go.
