Alright, we're going [Ab] to do a song that we [Dbm] haven't played live for a long time, [N] from
an old album called Don't [Ab] Shoot Me, I'm Only the Piano Player.
And this features our [N] guitarist David Johnson, and the song is called Have Mercy on the Criminal.
Have
[Cm] mercy on [Bb] [Am]
[Ab] the [Cm] criminal
Have
[C] [Ab]
[C]
[Cm] [Gb] [F]
[Bb] [Cm] you heard [G] the dogs at night?
[Cm] [Eb] Somewhere on the [Ab] hill
She's an [Cm] uncle criminal
And I guess they're [G] out to kill
But [Gm]
[Cm] a man beats a bull [G] on his feet
[Eb] Another in his [Ab] eyes
Stumbling [Fm]
through [Cm] the devil's dark
With a house packed and [G] full of fries
Have
[Ab] mercy [Bb] on the criminal
[Cm] We're running from the law
[Bb] [Ab] Are you blind [Bb] to the wind that changes?
[Cm] Don't you hear anymore?
[Ab] Say Lord you gotta help me
Or
[Fm] am I gonna slip again?
[Cm] Take these chains from [Ab] around my legs
And the sweet [G] news of my faith will be [Cm] on my hand
[G]
[Cm] I've seen [G] all the white teeth gleam
While [Cm] you lie on the cold [Ab] damp ground
You're aching in the face [Cm] of a rifle buzz
While the waters [G] hold you down
[Cm]
[G] Seen a friend in need
All [Eb] the time [Cm] your heart's a [Ab] stoner
[Fm] You've got the water [Cm] and the dogs running free
And the grave is gonna be [G] your home
Have
[Ab] mercy [Bb] on the criminal
[Cm] We're running from the law
[C]
[Ab] Are you blind [Bb] to the wind that changes?
[Gm] [Cm] Don't you hear anymore?
[Gm] [Cm] [C]
[Ab] Say Lord you gotta help me
Or
[Fm] am I gonna slip again?
[Cm] Take these chains [Ab] from around my legs
And [G] the sweet news of my faith will be [Cm] on my hand

you blind to [Bb] the wind that changes?
[Cm] Don't you hear anymore?
