Matthew West – Mercy Is A Song (Guitar)

            E                   B
Mercy is a song, singing to my heart

               C#m                    A
Telling me it's ok, come just as you are

                 E                                    B
I never heard a melody, like the one they're singing over me

                       C#m                      A
And I just wanna sing along, 'cause mercy is a song

              E                       B
Freedom is a choir, swaying back and forth

                C#m                               A
Shining in the shadow of a stain glassed Sunday morning

           E                        B
Shouting hallelujah, yesterday is gone

                 A                   E
Oh freedom is a choir and mercy is a song

        C#m A    E                            C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light for every soul

E                                        C#m  A
No matter where you've been just come on home

E                            B
Let all God's children sing along

                        A
Hallelujah chains are gone

            E
Mercy is a song

E                            B
Guilty is a lie, spoken by a thief

                C#m                                      A
Saying after what you've done, you don't deserve to be free

                           E                              B
But I can look him in the eye, and say this time you're wrong

                    A                       E
'Cause guilty is a lie, oh but mercy is a song

        C#m A    E                         C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light for every soul

E                                        C#m  A
No matter where you've been just come on home

E                            B
Let all God's children sing along

                        A
Hallelujah chains are gone

            C#m  B
Mercy is a song

                 A
A song of the redeemed

                   F#m
A glimpse of what waits for you and me

E                                       B
Heaven is a mansion, a promise in the sky

                         C#m                            A
That one day we will be singing with those angels up on high

                   E                               B
That old familiar melody, like we've known it all along

                   A                    E
Oh heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song

              A                      E
Heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song

E
Oh tell me, can you hear it?

        C#m A    E                            C#m A
Singing ohhhhh, there is a light for every soul

E                                        C#m  A
No matter where you've been just come on home

E                            B
Let all God's children sing along

                        A
Hallelujah chains are gone

E                            B
Let all God's children sing along

                        A
Hallelujah chains are gone

            E
Mercy is a song
