[Verse 1]
Em
I can't give up I heard him say, the day he left
Em                             Em9
Fadin' footsteps on hot cement
  Em
I don't know where he went, but he left in a hurry
Em9     Em                              Em
Sayin' somehing about a mission of mercy

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A    B                   A
Mama hasn't been sleepin' well at all
B                         A
As she lies stretched out in the hall
                   G    G
Waiting for him to call

[Verse 2]
        Em
Now the mercy of his missioon still isn't quite clear
Em9      Em
He had a different angle than what it would appear
Em9     Em
Now I don't know where he went, but he left in a hurry
Em9       Em
He sayin' something about a mission of mercy

[Pre-Chorus 2]
A    B                    A
Mama hasn't been sleepin' well at all
B                         A
As she lies stretched out in the hall
B
Waiting for him to . .

[Chorus 1]

Call us please someday

As she lies stretched out in the hall
