Am
Lord have mercy on my soul
Dm
For I have walked the sinful road
Am E7
That I'm down on my knees
Am
Lord have mercy on me, please
[Verse 1]Am
Jesus, I must confess
Dm
That in all my loneliness
Am
I've forsaken and I've sinned
E7 Am
Leaving fragments of a man so broken
[Verse 2] Am
I could tell you what I've done
Dm
Or should I tell you where I went wrong?
Am
Well the more that I start to play
E7
My deceitful, evil ways
Am
Keep on growing stronger by the day
[Chorus] Am
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Dm
For I have walked a sinful road
Am
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
E7
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Am
Lord have mercy on me, please
[Verse 3] Am
Mother Mary full of grace
Dm
In my weakness, I've lost faith
Am
I've been careless, and I have been warned
E7
And the devil inside me is torn
Am
God bless the men that I have scorned
[Chorus] Am
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Dm
For I have walked a sinful road
Am
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
E7
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Am
Lord have mercy on me, please
Am Dm Am E7 Am
[Bridge] Am
So don't let me fool around no more
Dm
Send your angels down to guide me through that door
Am
Well I've gone and confessed my regrets
E7
And I pray I'm not held in contempt
Am
I'm so lost, and I need you to help me repent
[Final Chorus] Am
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Dm
Oh I'm begging, I'm pleeding, I'm needing
I want you to know Am
So I'm down upon my knees
E7
Oh lord,
Am
