Intro: E 

verse 1 
           E 
Seems like finding love is harder 
          A                 E 
Than I'll ever thought it'd be 
   A              E 
Oh mercy oh mercy me 
     E 
Been holdin' on to nothing 
         A              E 
Now it's tearing at the seams 
   A              E 
Oh mercy oh mercy me 

       C#m       A 
And it's wooo oh whoa 
         E 
Why do I run? 
       C#m       A 
And it's wooo oh whoa 
                E 
The things I've done 
C#m             B        A 
Pretty eyes and troubled dreams 
C#m               B    A 
You'll be all I'd ever seen 
                  E 
Oh mercy oh mercy me 

verse 2 
   E 
My hands are on the reins 
        A            E 
And I'm running wide open 
    A              E 
I'm beaten and I'm broken 
      B 
Still starin' down the sun 
    E 
And all them weary days 
    A            E 
And fallen loves behind me 
     A           E                B            E 
Your gentle ways remind me of the man I wish I was 

       C#m       A 
And it's wooo oh whoa 
         E 
Why do I run? 
       C#m       A 
And it's wooo oh whoa 
                E 
The things I've done 
C#m             B        A 
Pretty eyes and troubled dreams 
C#m               B    A 
You'll be all I'd ever seen 
                  E 
Oh mercy oh mercy me

Oh mercy oh mercy me 
     E 
Been holdin' on to nothing 
           A              E 
That's the way it's gonna be 
   A              E 
Oh mercy oh mercy me
