[D#]
[A] Dreaming of Mercy [E]
Street
[C#m] While [E] you're inside out
[A] Dreaming of [E] Mercy
In [A] [C#m] your [G#m] [E] daddy's arms [F#m] again
[Bm] [E] Dreaming of [C#m] Mercy Street
[B] [E] I swear they move that sign
Looking for mercy
In [G#m] your [C#m] daddy's arms
[G#m]
[C#m] [B]
[C#m] [B]
[C#m] [B] Looking [C#m] down on empty streets
All she can see
[A] The dreams on the inside
[F#m] The dreams made real
[C#m] All of the buildings
All of the cars
[A] Were once just a dream
[F#m]
In somebody's head
[C#m] She pictures the broken glass
Pictures the steel
[A] She pictures the soul
[F#m] There's no need at [C#m] the scene
Just take the road and bring until darkness
Just take the road and bring until darkness comes
Now we're in the corridors of pale green and grey
[A] Nowhere in the suburbs, [F#m] in cold light of day
[C#m] There are limits to this, so alive and alone
[A] Once a cold, blind [B]
home
[A] Dreaming of Mercy [B]
Street
[C#m] While you're [A] inside out
[E] Dreaming of Mercy
[A]
In [B] [C#m] your daddy's arms [B]
again
Dreaming [C#m] of Mercy [A] [B]
Street
I [C#m] swear they move [A] that sign
Looking [E] for mercy
[A]
[F#m] In [B] [C#m] your daddy's arms
[C#]
[C#m]
[A]
[C#m] [A]
[C#m]
Pulling out the papers from drawers that slide slow
[A] Touching at the darkness, [F#m] word upon word
[C#m] Confessing all the secret things in the warm velvet box
[A] To the priest, he's the doctor, [F#m] he can have dog shots
[C#m] Reaping out the tendons, tremble in the hips
[A] Kissing their [B] wings
[C#m] Dreaming of [A] Mercy [B]
Street
[C#m] While you're [A] inside out
Dreaming [E] of Mercy
[A]
In [B] [C#m] your daddy's arms [B]
again
[A] Dreaming of Mercy [B]
Street
[C#m] I swear they move [A] that sign
Looking [E] for mercy

[B] [C#m] [B]
[C#m]
[B] [C#m] [B]
And [C#] with the father, he's out in the boat
[A]
Riding the water, [F#m] riding the waves on [C#] the sea
