[Verse 1]
F#
  For every second you’ve been talking
D#m                                    C#
  I’ve been trying to count the lines around your face
F#                                                   D#m
  Cause I don’t know if I’ll ever be this close again
 
[Pre-chorus]
  C#                 F#
I feel like I’m just wasting time before you pull the trigger
         D#m                                               C#
It’s the drawing of the line it’s my ghost you’re going to give up
         F#
Got your made up mind it hurts to see you’re alright
D#m
  When I’m not alright
C#
  So if you’re calling it a night
 
[Chorus]
B
  Oh please have, have mercy
F#              C#                       B
  Have mercy on me, you’re breaking my heart
 
(Oh please have, have mercy)
F#              C#               B
  Have mercy on me, I’m falling apart
 
Have mercy, my heart
 
[Verse 2]
F#
  I felt you slip away so slowly
D#m                                 C#
  I lost my grip a little more each time we touched
F#                                                     D#m
  I’ve got no hope I guess ill never get it back again
 
[Pre-chorus]
 C#                   F#
Felt like I was just wasting time before you pulled the trigger
          D#m                                              C#
It’s the drawing of the line it’s my ghost you’re going to give up
         F#
Got your made up mind it hurts to see you’re alright
D#m
  When I’m not alright
C#
  So if you’re calling it a night
 
[Chorus]
B
  Oh please have, have mercy
F#            C#                       B
Have mercy on me, you’re breaking my heart
 
(Oh please have, have mercy)
F#               C#               B
  Have mercy on me, I’m falling apart
                              D#m
And I just don’t know how we got
     C#            B
So wrong, for so long
 
(Oh please have, have mercy)
F#              C#           B
  Have mercy on me, mercy my heart
 
[Bridge]
          B
Somehow I can’t let go
                             F#        C#
But I know I’ve been holding on too long
          B
Somehow I can’t let go
                             F#        C#
But I know I’ve been holding on too long
 
[Chorus]
B
  Oh please have, have mercy
F#              C#                      B
  Have mercy on me, you’re breaking my heart
 
(Oh please have, have mercy)
F#              C#                B
  Have mercy on me, I’m falling apart
                              D#m
And I just don’t know how we got
     C#           B
So wrong, for so long
 
(Oh please have, have mercy)
F#              C#            B
  Have mercy on me, mercy my heart
 
Have mercy, my heart
