At The Mercy Of Imbeciles chords by Bad Religion

Key: C

🤘 Intro:

C5



🤘 Verse 1:
A5                         C5
What you do is what you are
    A5                       C5
And wishing upon distant stars
A5                              C5
Won't improve the hole you're in
    A5                            C5
And won't absolve your deepest sin

🤘 Chorus:
    Eb5          F5               Bb5             C5
But action is no gift from some covert and lofty god
       Eb5         F5              C5
It's dependent and weighty all the same
         Eb5   F5           Bb5  C5
And it's oh so easy just to keep to yourself
                Eb5       F5        C5
But then you're at the mercy of imbeciles

🤘 Verse 2:
    A5                        C5
Now I didn't make up the rules
    A5                        C5
But clearly we are led by fools
A5                          C5
It is wise to know their ways
   A5                        C5
So you know how not to behave

🤘 Chorus:
    Eb5          F5                Bb5         C5
But sometimes we find ourselves in desperate need
       Eb5                F5            C5
And we look to those with privilege and power
     Eb5              F5             Bb5                C5
It's then we learn compassion sits inert upon their shelves
      Eb5       F5        C5
We're at the mercy of imbeciles

Guitar 🤘 Solo:
C5

Out-🤘 Chorus:
   Eb5          F5                    Bb5             C5
No action is no gift from some masked spirit in the sky
       Eb5            F5           C5
It's reducible to flesh, mind, and bone
          Eb5   F5           Bb5           C5
And it is oh so easy just to keep to yourself
                Eb5       F5        C5
But then you're at the mercy of imbeciles
C5
Imbeciles
C5
Imbeciles
C5
Imbeciles!
