Song: A Touch Of Mercy Artist: Elliott Murphy Album: Lost Generation (1976) Tabbed by: Javier de la Fuente [Intro] E C#m A E E B A E [Verse]
E                               B
I was walking down Main Street just the other day

          C#m                       A
Thinking about Brian Jones and the final getaway

   E                          B
A man with a collar comes to see me

       C#m              A            E               B
Saying son why do you greet me this way? What did I say?
[Chorus]
                 F#m                        C#m
Everybody needs mercy and a little touch of God

                   F#m                           B
I was looking for mercy and the strength to live on
[Verse]
               E                        B
You know these nurses are blue and the sky's turning black

      C#m                       A
And I can't seem to get up off of my back

       E                         B
And I hear this voice that keeps calling

       C#m                   A           E               B
And I'm trying hard to stop falling his way - but that's OK
[Chorus]
                      F#m                        C#m
Well everybody needs mercy and a little touch of God 

                   F#m                          B             A           
I am looking for mercy and the strength to live on and on and on and 

       G#m           F#m           E
on and on and on and on and on and on
[Bridge]
G#m                                   A
You tell me whose going to tell those kids 

G#m                                   A
Whose gonna talk about the things we did

G#m                                   A
An who is gonna be there to turn them on 

                             B   A   G#m   F#m   E
I got secrets born with the bomb
[Instrumental] B C#m A E B C#m A E B F#m C#m F#m B A G#m F#m E [Verse]
E                                   B
And just when I thought I'd take a Hemingway shot

      C#m                       A
The F Scott in me says man you better not

       E                         B
And sometimes it's so hard to remember

    C#m        A            E                             B
How very very Tender is the Night don't let it give you a fright
[Chorus]
                      F#m                        C#m
Well everybody needs mercy and a little touch of God 

                   F#m                          B             A           
I am looking for mercy and the strength to live on and on and on and 

       G#m           F#m           B   A   G#m   F#m
on and on and on and on and on and on
[Outro]
B   A   G#m   A   E   E   Em
and on and on and
