Mercy Of The Fallen Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Oh my fGair North SDtar

I have Emheld to you deCarly

I had aGsked you to sCteer me

'Til one Gcloud-scattered nDight

I got lGost in my trDavels

I met EmLeo the lCion

Met a kGing and met a giaCnt

With their eGrrant liDght D7

There's the wEmind and the rBmain

And the meCrcy of the fallen

Who say tGhey have no cDlaim to know what's Emright C

There's the wGeak and the strDong

And the bEmeds that have no Canswer

And that's wGhere I may rDest my head tEmonight C

I saw aGll the bright pDeople

In iEmmposing flocks they lCanded

And they Ggot what they deCmanded

And they sGcratched at the grDound

Then they Gflew and the fDear

Grew as sEmweetly for the flCightless

Who had lGonging yet despCite this

Who could hGear every soDund D7

There's the wEmind and the rBmain

And the meCrcy of the fallen

Who say tGhey have no cDlaim to know what's Emright C

And if your sGister or your brDother

Were stEmumbling on their lCast mile

In a sGelf-inflicted Cexile

You'd wish for thGem a humble frDiend

And I hGope somedDay

That the Embest of Falstaff's plaCnners

Give me sGeven half-built maCnors

Where hGalf dreams may dDream without Emend D

There's the wEmind and the rBmain

And the meCrcy of the fallen

Who say HGey, it's not Dmy place to know whaEmt's righCt

There's the wGeak and the strDong

And the mEmany stars that guidCe us

We have soGme of them insCide us G D G
