      D              G  A
Last night I had a dream
      D               G A
The dream I had was true
D                    G  A
I fell through the stars
      D              G  A
Went walking on the moon
        Bm                         E
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms

      D            G      A
The skin under my finger tips
D           G       A
Honeysuckle of her lips
  D             G     A         Bm
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
 G                          A
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?

Chorus:
      D G A
But Amen
    Amen
    Amen

Last night we were born together
It was like we’d always been
She’ll be with me forever
If I don’t see her again
We poured the wine until our cup ran over

Unfolding like a mystery
Inside of her like poetry
A thousand horses running through my veins
Mercy, mercy what else can I say

Chorus:
Amen
Amen
Amen

   G
I laid down in her garden
 A
Naked on her floor
Bm
Windows up, the curtains blowing
Em
She don't lock the door

Chorus:
Amen
Amen

At the banquet table
A beggar at a feast
I felt her tongue between my lips
And I forgot to breathe
We stayed there ‘til the candles burned the carpet

Last night I had a dream
The dream I had was true
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
Mercy, mercy, I’ll kneel down and pray

Chorus:
Amen
Amen
Amen,
Amen
