Gm    C7    Gm    C7

Verse:
Gm                                             C7
When I was just seventeen, I ran away from home
Gm                                                 C7
To be with all the pretty people, to be on my own
Gm                                                                 C7
Bright lights and trains and bedsit stains, pavements paved with gold
Gm                                                  C7
And I believed in everything that everybody told me

Chorus:
Gm   Bb C7 Bb             C F G   Gm
Gm   Bb     C7 Bb         C F Gm   Gm
Have mercy.                 Have mercy on me

Verse:
Gm                                                  C7
I found myself in a lonely place, with a suitcase full of dreams
Gm                                                       C7
And I soon grew up to realise, what living in the doghouse means
Gm                                                   C7
But everyday I told myself, good things would happen soon
              Gm                                            C7
’cause I knew that I was going to be a legend in my living room

Chorus:
Gm   Bb C7 Bb     C F Gm   Gm       Gm   Bb C7 Bb
 Have mercy.         Have mercy on me. Have mercy.
C F Gm  Gm
Have mercy on me

Verse:
Gm                                                         C7
Now every day on a dead-end street, is where I spend my time
Gm                                                        C7
The dust has been collecting on, the corners of my mind
Gm                                                         C7
But I’ve shed my tears in bitter drops, until the thorn trees bloomed
Gm                                                 C7
To take the spiky fruit, to crown myself the King of Doom

Chorus:
Gm  Bb C Gm  Gm       C    F Gm Gm
Have mercy.                 Have mercy on me
Gm  Bb C Gm Gm                       C      F Gm Gm
Have mercy.       Oh Oh children, have mercy on me
 Gm  BbC Gm  Gm                          C         F  Gm
                                                       Have mercy.       Listen to me people, have mercy on
Gm
me.
