INTRO:

Single strum of G+G

VERSE 1:


       C majorC
I got a feelin' of unrighteousness

Down the road I walk with loneliness

But mercy will follow me I'm told

              C majorC
My sister sang a song so sweet and sad

        A minorAm
About a man whose love I never had

            C majorC
But there is a train bound for Gilead

    G+G
And mercy will follow me I'm told.


CHORUS:

G+G
Mercy, will you follow me?

C majorC
Mercy, will you follow me

Til my final breath at last I take?

Under this skin there lies a heart of stone

          A minorAm

Well a heart of gold I may one day own

And mercy will follow me I'm told
