Am Looking down on empty streets, Am7 All she can see, F Are the dreams all made solid, Dm7 Are the dreams made real. Am All of the buildings, Am7 All of the cars. F Were once just a dream, Dm7 In somebody's head. Am She pictures the broken glass, Am7 Pictures the steam. F She pictures a soul, Dm7 (Am) With no leak at the seam.
Bridge 1:
Am
Let's take the boat out,(Wait until darkness).
Let's take the boat out,
(Wait until darkness comes).
Verse 2:
Am Nowhere in the corridors, Am7 Of pale green and grey. F Nowhere in the suburbs, Dm7 In the cold light of day. Am There in the midst of it, Am7 So a-live and alone. F G Words support like bone.
Chorus 1:
C F G Dreaming of Mer-cy Street, Am Em F Where you're in-side out. C F G Dreaming of mercy, Am G In your daddy's arms a-gain. C F G Dreaming of Mer-cy Street, Am Em F Swear they moved that sign. C F G Dreaming of mercy, Am In your daddy's arms...
Interlude:
Am7, F (x3), Am
Verse 3:
Am Pulling out the papers, Am7 From the drawers that slide smooth. F Tugging at the darkness, Dm7 Word upon word. Am Con-fessing all the secret things, Am7 In the warm velvet box, F To the priest; he's the doctor, Dm7 He can handle the shocks. Am Dreaming of the tenderness, Am7 The tremble in the hips; F G Of kissing Mary's lips.
Chorus 2:
C F G Mer-cy Street, Am Em F Where you're in-side out. C F G Dreaming of mercy, Am G In your daddy's arms a-gain. C F G Dreaming of Mer-cy Street, Am Em F Swear they moved that sign. C F G Dreaming of mercy, Am In your daddy's arms...
Interlude:
Am7, F (x3) Am
Break:
Am
Mercy...Mercy...Looking for mercy.
Am G Mercy... Am G Looking for mercy... Am F Looking for mercy... Am Looking for mercy...
Coda:
Am Anne with her father, Am7 Is out in the boat, F Riding the water, Dm7 Am Riding the waves on the sea.
