Have [D] mercy.
Here come the judges.
[G]
[Dm] [A]
[D] [G]
[D]
I was standing in line at the [G] city bus [D] stop, soaked to the skin from [A] the ever-raining drop.
[D] I see you driving by just like [G] a Phantom Jet, [D] with your arm around [A] some [C#] little [D]
brunette.
You say you won't be home because you're [G] working late.
[D] Honey, I'm no fool, you've [C] been out [A] all day.
[D] Lipstick on your collar gives your [G] game away.
[D] Strawberry red in [A] my [D] spine crawls there.
Have mercy on [G]
me.
[D] You treat me so bad, I'm in [A] misery.
[D] It's breaking my heart, [G] can't you see?
[D] Baby, baby, [C] have mercy [D] on me.
[G]
[D]
Well, I called you up on [G] the telephone.
I could hear [D] you was playing [A] Haggard and Jones.
[D] I knew right then that there was [G] something wrong.
[D] There's only one reason you [A] play [D] cheating songs.
Have mercy on [G]
me.
[D] You treat me so bad, I'm in misery.
[C] [D] It's breaking my heart, can't [G] you see?
[D] Baby, baby, [C] have mercy [D] on me.
Well, [G]
[D] [A]
[D] [G]
[D] [B] [D]
I went to the bank with my little [G]
checkbook.
The cashier, he gave [D] me this strange [A]
look.
He said, you [Gm] ain't got no money [D] because you're [G]
overdrawn.
[D] The [Gm] man took it all and [A] he's [B] a [D] dung-gone.
Have mercy on [G]
me.
[D] You treat me so bad, I'm in [Am]
misery.
[D] It's breaking my heart, can't [G] you see?
[D] Baby, baby, [C] have mercy on me.
