_ Alright, we're going [Ab] to do a song that we [Dbm] haven't played live for a long time, [N] from
an old album called Don't [Ab] Shoot Me, I'm Only the Piano Player.
And this features our [N] guitarist David Johnson, and the song is called Have Mercy on the Criminal.
Have _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ mercy on _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ the [Cm] criminal
_ Have _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ [Gb] _ [F] _
_ [Bb] _ [Cm] _ _ you heard [G] the dogs at night? _
_ [Cm] [Eb] Somewhere _ _ on the [Ab] hill _ _ _
_ _ _ _ She's an [Cm] uncle criminal _ _
And I guess they're [G] out to kill
But _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
[Cm] a man beats a bull [G] on his feet _
_ [Eb] Another _ _ in his [Ab] eyes
_ Stumbling _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
through [Cm] the devil's dark _
With a house packed and [G] full of _ fries _
Have _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ mercy _ _ [Bb] on the criminal _ _
[Cm] We're running from the law
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ [Ab] _ _ Are you blind [Bb] to the wind that changes? _
[Cm] Don't you hear anymore? _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ Say Lord you gotta help me
Or _ _
_ [Fm] _ am I gonna slip again? _ _ _
_ [Cm] Take these chains from [Ab] around my legs
And the sweet [G] news of my faith will be [Cm] on my _ hand
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] I've _ seen _ [G] all the white teeth gleam
While [Cm] you lie on the cold [Ab] damp ground _ _
You're aching in the face [Cm] of a rifle buzz _
While the waters _ _ [G] hold you down _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _
[G] Seen a friend in need
All [Eb] the time [Cm] your heart's a [Ab] stoner _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ You've got the water [Cm] and the dogs running free _
And the grave is gonna be [G] your home
Have
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] mercy _ _ _ [Bb] on the criminal _ _ _
[Cm] We're running from the law
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ Are you blind [Bb] to the wind that changes? _ _
[Gm] [Cm] Don't you hear anymore? _ _
[Gm] _ [Cm] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ Say Lord you gotta help me
Or _
_ [Fm] _ _ am I gonna slip _ again? _ _ _
[Cm] Take _ these chains [Ab] from around my _ legs
And [G] the sweet news of my faith will be [Cm] on my hand _

you blind to [Bb] the wind that changes?
_ [Cm] Don't you hear anymore?
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ Say Lord you gotta help me
Or _ _ [F] _ _
am I gonna slip [Fm] _ again? _
_ _ [Cm] Take _ [Eb] these chains from [Ab] around my _ legs
