House Of Mercy Chords by Sarah Jarosz

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _
In the middle of the night again
Still water and the birds don't sing
Cold gin in the back room
I'm in, medicating for the trouble that's [Dm] coming
[G] _
_ [Dm] [D] Walls _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
rattle like a diesel _ freighter
Blood races like a wave _ _
This house wasn't meant for strangers
But you can knock in anyway
_ I can hear you knocking on the door
_ I won't leave it open for you [G] anymore
[D] I can hear you knocking on the door
_ Knocking on the door of the house of mercy _
_ _ _ [F] Don't [G] _ _
try to change my [F] [G] mind
That knock gets louder [D] all the _ time _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] Don't try to wear me [F] down
[G] _
You'll never get [D] inside this house
[C] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Underneath that shirt you're wearing
_ Strained muscles and a heart [G] of [D] stone
Double crossing like a wild _ [Eb] [D] chameleon
You make me [C] wanna be alone
[G] [Dm] I _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ can hear you knocking on the door
I _ won't leave it open for you [G] anymore
_ [D] I can hear you knocking [Dm] on the door
_ [D] Knocking on the [Dm] door of the [G] house of [D] mercy _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Don't _ _
[C] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ try to change my [Dm] [G] mind
That knock gets louder all [D] the _ _ time _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] Don't _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
try to wear me [C] down
_ You'll never get [D] inside this house
_ [C] _ I [Dm] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ can hear you knocking on the door
_ I won't leave it open for you anymore
I can hear you knocking on the door
_ _ [G] Knocking on the door [D] of the house of mercy _ _ _
