Verse:

E|E|E|----|-|-| 

Looking down on empty streets, all 
she can see
Dbm                            E/Db

Are the dreams all made solid, are 
the dreams made real
        Gbm/A                      

    Gbm

All of the buildings, all of the 
cars
Dbm                   E/Db

Were once just a dream in somebody's
 head
     Gbm/A                E/Db

She pictures the broken glass, 
pictures the steam
    Dbm                        E/Db

She pictures a soul with no leak at 
the seam
    A                    A/Gb


Bridge:

E|E|E|----|-|-|- 

Let's take the boat out (wait until 
darkness)
Dbm

Let's take the boat out (wait until 
darkness comes)

[verse]
Nowhere in the corridors of pale 
green and grey
Nowhere in the suburbs, in the cold 
light of day
There in the midst of it so alive 
and alone
Words support like bone
A                  B


Chorus:

E|E|E|----|-|-|- 

Dreaming of Mer--cy Street, wear 
your inside  out
            E/Db A  B       Dbm 

        Abm/B A9

Dreaming of mercy     in your 
daddy's arms again
            E     A B         

Dbm          B

Dreaming of Mer--cy Street, swear 
they moved that  sign
            E/Db A  B       Dbm 

             Abm/B A9

Dreaming of mercy     in your 
daddy's arms
            E     A B         Dbm


Solo:

Dbm

[verse]
Pulling out the papers from the 
drawers that slide smooth
Tugging at the darkness, word upon 
word
Confessing all the secret things in 
the warm velvet box
To the priest-he's the doctor, he 
can handle the shocks
Dreaming of the tenderness-the 
tremble in the hips
Of kissing Mary's lips
   A              B

[chorus]
Dreaming of Mercy Street, wear your 
inside out
Dreaming of mercy in your daddy's 
arms again
Dreaming of Mercy Street, swear they
 moved that sign
Looking for mercy in your daddy's 
arms

[solo]

Mercy, mercy looking for mercy
Dbm

Mercy,    looking for mercy
Dbm    B              Db     B

Looking for mercy
            Dbm    A

Looking for mercy...
            Dbm


End:

E|----| 

Anne with her father is out in the 
boat
Dbm                     E/Db

Riding the water,
Gbm/A

Riding the waves
Gbm
