     D MajorD
Well you praise him
     D/F#D/F#
Then you thank him
     D MajorD     Bm/D D MajorD   D/F#D/F#
Till you reach the by - and - by
       D(b5)
And I've won hundreds at the track
      Dsus4Dsus4        D MajorD
But I'm not betting on the afterlife

     D MajorD
Then you kiss his lips
   D/F#D/F#
He forgives you for it
   D MajorD       Bm/D D MajorD   D/F#D/F#
He forgives you for all you've done

But not me

I'm still an....gry

What have I done?

Get some words to explain
    D MajorD    Bm/D D MajorD D/F#D/F#
It's a plan, brother, at least
      D(b5)     Dsus4Dsus4      D MajorD
And I'll pretend that everybody here wants peace

   D MajorD
Have mercy,
   D/F#D/F#
Have mercy,
   D MajorD Bm/D D MajorD D/F#D/F#
Have mercy  on me
      D(b5)      Dsus4Dsus4     D MajorD
Cause we're tired and lonely and we're bloody

       G+G
What have we done?
         Esus4Esus4
Why are we still running
       G+G
From our own failing bodies?
A augmentedA      D MajorD
  The big guns,
The big guns.

   D MajorD
Sing mercy,
   D/F#D/F#
Sing mercy,
   D MajorD Bm/D D MajorD D/F#D/F#
Sing mercy  on me
     D(b5)     Dsus4Dsus4      D MajorD
Let's pretend that everybody here wants peace

What have we done?
         Esus4Esus4           G+G
Why are we still chasing our own tails and runnin'
A augmentedA        D MajorD
  From the big guns,
The big guns,
The big guns.
