"Mercy"By Shawn Mendes
(In 4/4 time. 4 bar piano Intro)
You've got a hold of me
Don't even know your power.
I stand a hundred feet
But I fall when I'm around you.
Show me a open door
You go and slam it on me.
I can't take anymore
I'm saying baby...
Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart.
Even though you don't
Mean to hurt me.
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart
I'd drive through the night
Just to be near you baby.
Heart old and testified
Tell me that I'm not crazy.
I'm not asking for a lot
Just that you're honest with me.
My pride is all I've got
I'm saying baby...
Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart.
Even though you don't
Mean to hurt me.
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
I would gladly do it twice.
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
I would gladly do it twice.
Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart.
Even though you don't
Mean to hurt me.
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart
...Mercy
...Mercy
...On my heart (repeat)
