Mercy Gatekeeper chords by Hayley Kiyoko

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

Verse 1:
 G+G
When the city sleeps, I'm awake
          A minorAm
Caught up in the dreams I can't create
     G+G
When the city sleeps, I'm awake
         A minorAm
Locked up in my mind, I can't escape
    G+G
There's nothing I can do but wait
      E minorEm
I call you crying 'cause it's too much pain
    G+G
I can tell you don't get it
               A augmentedA
'Cause you tell me that everything will be okay

Bridge:
G+G      B minorBm
All I wanna do is cry
    G+G     B minorBm
That's all I wanna do
G+G      B minorBm
All I wanna do is cry
       A augmentedA
And bang my head
         G+G
Until I start to fly
 D MajorD           G+G
Bang, bang, I start to fly
 D MajorD           G+G
Bang, bang, I start to fly

Verse 2:
G+G
Maybe, I'll just dye my hair
      A minorAm
To make me feel like I don't care
    G+G
It'll be my war paint
           E minorEm          D MajorD
'Cause Lord knows I need the strength, I need the strength
G+G
Mondays might be alright
    A minorAm
And Sundays will probably hurt
          G+G
'Cause when your mouth starts moving with the noise
        A minorAm
I don't hear a single word

Bridge:
G+G      B minorBm
All I wanna do is cry
    G+G     B minorBm
That's all I wanna do
G+G      B minorBm
All I wanna do is cry
       A augmentedA
And bang my head
         G+G
Until I start to fly
 D MajorD           G+G
Bang, bang, I start to fly
 D MajorD           G+G
Bang, bang, I start to fly
       E minorEm
I watch the sky get brighter
    A augmentedA
The lights get higher now

Chorus:
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
 A augmentedA
Hurting, hurting

Part 2: Gatekeeper

Verse 1:
G+G              E minorEm
Stuck in the traffic that's racing in my mind
G+G            E minorEm
Blankets of wool just to cover up my eyes
    A minorAm             E minorEm
'Cause what I need, what I need is quiet
      A minorAm             E minorEm
And I know what I need, what I need is hiding
G+G             E minorEm
I'm just a face someone's passing on the street
G+G            E minorEm
Paint on a smile so that no one ever sees
    A minorAm             E minorEm
'Cause what I need, what I need is quiet
      A minorAm             E minorEm
And I know what I need, what I need is hiding

Bridge:
G+G          A minorAm
Talk to me, keep on, talk to me
  E minorEm
Oh, oh, oh
  A augmentedA
Oh, oh, oh
G+G          A minorAm
Talk to me, keep on, talk to me
  E minorEm
Oh, oh, oh
  A augmentedA
Oh, oh, oh

Interlude:
N.C.
It's easier for me to stay quiet, not speak a word
N.C.
For if I do, then the truth might emerge
N.C.
They are my emotions to feel
N.C.
Nobody can poison my feelings if they're never revealed
N.C.
I'll watch others live in loudness and I'll destroy the chaos in my way
N.C.
I have the control
N.C.
If I keep what's mine, I can have the purest soul
N.C.
And live with content, free from fear
N.C.
I choose my actions
N.C.
I am the gatekeeper

Chorus:
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
 A augmentedA
Hurting, hurting

G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
G+G          E minorEm
Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting
 A augmentedA
Hurting, hurting

Outro:
G+G      E minorEm
Don't let me die
    A minorAm     G+G
With my soul in the air
G+G      E minorEm
Don't let me die
   A augmentedA       G+G
When there's nobody here
