Chords for The Sound | 'First Church of Mercy' (acoustic)

_ _ Hey everybody, we're the sound and we're sharing some brand new music for you today off of our album
Make it count and there's a song that we'd love to play for you
It's called the first church of mercy and it's one of the most powerful lyrics off of the whole record and we think you're really
Gonna identify with what's in this song
It talks about the mercy that we have been extended and in turn how we should extend that mercy to others
This is a brand new song called the first church of mercy
He _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] saw the ones [G#m]
around him move [E] when he sat down
[F#] _
_ as [F#] the music softly [G#m] played
_ _ [E] _ Amazing _ _ grace
_ [F#] See last night's fall [D#m] off [E] the wagon
[B] _ _ _
_ [C#m] Left bruises on his face _
So [G#m] when he felt a hand on his shoulder, [E] he thought he'd [B] hear
Come back when [C#m] you're sober
_ [B] But a friendly voice [E] said
We're glad you're here
_ _ _ _ [B] Welcome to the first church of mercy
[G#m] Where the doors of love swing open wide [E] no matter who you [B] are.
No matter what you've [C#m] done
You can [E] come [C#] inside
Welcome [B] to the altar of forgiveness
_ [G#m] Where the fallen can fall [F#] and tears are _ [E] wiped away
_ _ [B] _ Welcome [C#m] to the [B] first church [E] of mercy [F#] _ take a seat on the front row of [B] grace _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [C#] _
_ [E] _ _ [B] See [C#] you don't have [G#m] to have it all [E] together here
[F#] _
_ _ Is there's a lot of us [G#m] who've been right _ [E] where you [F#] are
_ _ _ _ So we [G#m] all came in [E] here hurting
[B] _ _ _
_ broken [C#m] bruised and scarred _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ But then the [F#]
father reached us with the healing [B] hand of [C#m] Jesus and
Now we're all a part [E] of his [F#] family _ _
[B] Welcome to the first church of mercy
Where [G#m] the doors of love swing open wide [E] no matter who you [B] are.
No matter what you've [C#m] done
You can [E] come [F#] inside
Welcome [B] to the altar of forgiveness _
[G#m] Where the fallen can fall [F#] and tears are [E] wiped away
_ [B] Oh
Welcome to the [G#m] first church of mercy
[F#] Take a seat on the front row of [B] grace _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] No, we're not here to judge [B] you you can find that anywhere
_ [C#m] _
_ But [B] we're called to love [F#] you you are [B] _ _ welcome [F#]
here
_ _ _ _ In the first church of mercy
_ [G#m] Where the doors of love swing open wide and [E] no matter who you are [D#m] or what you've [C#] done
You [E] can come [G#] inside
[B] Welcome to the altar of forgiveness
_ [G#m] Where the fallen can fall [F#] and tears are _ [E] wiped _ [B] away Oh
Welcome [C#m] to the first church of mercy
_ [B] Take a seat on the [F#] front row of grace
[B] _ _ _
_ _ _ Welcome to the first church mercy
_ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
