House Of Mercy

Dm C In the middle of the night again Dm C G Still water and the birds don't sing Dm C Cold gin in the back room humming Dm C G Medicating for the trouble that's coming Dm C Walls rattle like a deisel freighter Dm C G Blood races like a wave Dm C This house wasn't meant for strangers Dm C G But you come knocking anyway Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G I won't leave it open for you anymore Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G Knocking on the door of the house of mercy Dm C F G Don't try to change my mind G Dm C G/B Asus4 That knock gets louder all the time G Don't try to wear me down G Dm C G/B Asus4 You'll never get inside this house Dm C Underneath that shirt you're wearing Dm C G Strained muscles and a heart of stone Dm C Double crossin' like a wild chameleon Dm C G You make me want to be alone Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G I won't leave it open for you anymore Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G Dm Knocking on the door of the house of mercy Dm C F G Don't try to change my mind G Dm C G/B Asus4 That knock gets louder all the time Bb Don't try to wear me down C Dm C G/B G You'll never get inside this house Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G I won't leave it open for you anymore Dm C I can hear you knocking on the door Dm C G Dm Knocking on the door of the house of mercy
