Mercy Mercy Me
Marvin Gaye
#From: shotokan@diku.dk (Kim H|glund)
#I haven't seen any replies so I'll take a shot at it. This song uses a
#simple four chord progression: Emaj7 - C#m7 - F#m7 - Amaj7.
Verse 1:
Emaj7
Ah, me
Emaj7
rcy, mercy me,
C#m7
Ah, things
C#m7
ain't what they used to be, no,
F#m7
no.
Where did all the
F#m7
blue skies go?
Amaj7
Poison is the wind that blows
Amaj7
from the north and south and east.
Verse 2:
Mercy, mercy me,
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no.
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon
our seas fish full of mercury,
Verse 3:
Oh, mercy, mercy me.
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no, no.
Radiation underground and in the sky;
animals and birds who live near by are dying.
Verse 4:
Oh, mercy, mercy me.
Ah, things ain't what they used to be.
What about this over crowded land?
How much more abuse from man can she stand?
