Nick Cave - Mercy Seat I was reading the tabs on this site and came up with this alternative. The verse is Em and Bm but I think the song is the Em bar chord on fret 7 5th string and fret 7 barred accross from the 5th string like this: --7---7--| --8---7--| --9---7--| --9---7--| --7---7--| ---------| This doesn't apply to the verse which I use all bar chords for. The guitar chords in the Nick Cave recording are just strung once and let ring with a whole bunch echoe and droney stuff. Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) I began to warm and chill Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) To objects and their fields Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) A ragged cup, a twisted mop Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) The face of Jesus in my soup Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) Those sinister dinner deals Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) The meal trolley's wicked wheels Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) A hooked bone rising from my Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) food. All things good or ungood. Em (022000@1) And the mercy seat is waiting Em (022000@1) And I think my head is burning Bm (x24432@1) And in a way I'm yearning to be D (xx0232@1) done with all this measuring of Dm (xx0231@1) truth, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a F (133211@1) tooth, And anyway I told the C (x32010@1) Em (022000@1) truth, And I'm not afraid to die. etc. Look at other chord tabs for full lyrics and song structure. Thanks.
