Mercy Is A Song

            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

[Chorus]
        C#m A    E                            C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light 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 thief
                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

[Chorus]
        C#m A    E                         C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light 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?

[Chorus]
        C#m A    E                            C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light 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                            B
Let all God's children sing along
                        A
Hallelujah chains are gone
            E
Mercy is a song
