Am Lord have mercy on my soul
Dm For I have walked the sinful road
AmE7 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
E7Am 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
AmDmAmE7Am [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
