In all my life, Mercy

Hasn't known my name this well/ Like how every sea filters out

Bb                                      F
And leads us gently to a creek/ We sit around

In patches of pink clouds, Thick smoke/ 
         Bb             F
It comes rising off the hillside slopes
                       
              A    Bb
Down here in this neighbourhood/ It's just the dumps
       
With cars iced up, perfect/ for writing 
    F
on if/ You're wearing gloves

Every season I spend alone/ 
C                           Bb
Feels like a thousand to my heart and in my soul

Interlude: F Bb (x2)

V3: (Chords the same, essentially)

Instead of praying I tell god/ these jokes he must

Be tired of himself so much he must be more/ Than disappointed Christmas

comes we eat alone/ A pretty smile surrounds a pretty girl who

Takes your order she yells/ it and cries alone in/ 

The backroom once in a while until it stops/ Then she smiles

Chorus 3:

So let her down easy if you must/ But let her down easy

Some of us are strong/ But the rest of us are weak

And go it alone/ So let us down easy if you must

But let us down easy, Lord/Let us down easy lord,
