C                  F 
Last night I had a dream  
C                   F 
The dream I had was true  
C                  F 
I fell through the stars  
C                   F 
Went walking on the moon  
Am                     F              G 
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms  

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

    C F   C F  C F 
But Amen. Amen Amen 

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

C                  F 
Unfolding like the mystery  
C                  F 
Inside of her like poetry  
C                 F                  Am 
A thousand horses running through my veins  
F                           G 
Mercy, mercy what else can I say  

    C F   C F  C F 
But Amen. Amen Amen 

Am                 F 
I laid down in her garden  
Am           F 
Naked on her floor  
Am                  F 
Windows up, the curtains blowing  
Am                  F 
She don't lock the door  

 Am F C G  Am F  C G 
Amen,      Amen  

C              F 
At the banquet table  
C             F 
A beggar at a feast  
C                            F 
I felt her tongue between my lips  
C                  F 
And I forgot to breath  
Am                       F                   G 
We stayed there 'til the candles burned the carpet  

C                  F 
Last night I had a dream  
C                   F 
The dream I had was true  
C             F               Am 
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say  
F                                  G 
Mercy, mercy, I?ll kneel down and pray

Amen, Amen

Amen,      Amen
