Glen Hansard – Tender Mercies (Guitar)

C#m          A
It came to nothing

E                    G#m
This longing, this long

C#m            A
Your tender mercies

E                             B
They weren't enough, weren't enough

      E            A                G#m        B
Oh, what I said, it's taken us, so long to learn

            E                A               G#m         F#m
the world is coming down around us while we wait our turn

             E              A       G#m       B    C#m7
Now we're running out of road and hope will have you gone

                 A
They'll try to warn ya

               E           G#m
It's a cruel world, a cruel world

                        A
They'll mislead and misinform you

            E              G#m
Don't you turn, don't you turn

      E            A                G#m        B
Oh, what I said, it's taken us, so long to learn

            E                A               G#m         F#m
the world is falling down around us while we wait our turn

             E              A       G#m       B         F#m
Now we're running out of road and hope will have you gone

                 B
Beyond that light storm in the air

                F#m
I wonder if you'd hear it now

                  B
An endless storm come ringing through the air

      C#m             A              E        B
Oh, what I said, it's taken us so long to learn

            C#m              A                E       B
the world is coming down around us while we wait our turn

               C#m              A              E                  B            C#m
Now we're running out, still plain in doubt, still jumping from the windows of the world

        A                  E                 B
Your tender mercies, they weren't enough, weren't enough
