"Pete Rose and Babe Ruth"
HAVE MERCY
A PLACE OF OUR OWN
TUNING: standard
CAPO: none
INTRO:
A
 AI'll tell you how it went
 AAnd all the time we spent
 Trying to Dmake something of us
 Something we C#mknew but never Dwas
 ALaid faced down on the bed
 AAnd spoke in tongues with the dead
 The times you Dsaw me lose my cool
 The stares were C#mblank, the words were Dcruel
 DBut what if I was the problem the whole Etime?
 Well, I'd beg forAgiveness and oblige
 The ground just opened wide and ate me Dwhole
                        DE
 Why am I so happy I could die?
 There were no Awords to say goodbye
 The ground just opened wide and ate you Dwhole
A
 AFigured they'd figure out soon
 AThey'd never put a man on the moon
 And Dno one knows the truth
 Pete C#mRose and Babe DRuth
 AWhat if you got there to see
 AThat it's not what you believed?
 No blinding Dlights or smiling teeth
 I'd tell you you were C#mwrong all along
 You'd Dtell me that you hate me
 DBut what if I was the problem the whole Etime?
 Well, I'd beg forAgiveness and oblige
 The ground just opened wide and ate me Dwhole
                        DE
 Why am I so happy I could die?
 There were no Awords to say goodbye
 The ground just opened wide and ate you Dwhole
 DI'm always looking for the Eanswers and wondering why
 The Arules were ever made for us if G#mwe never abide
 DI'm always looking for the Eanswers and wondering why
 The Arules were ever made for us if G#mwe never abide
 DI'm always looking for the Eanswers and wondering why
 The Arules were ever made for us if G#mwe never abide
 DI'm always looking for the Eanswers and wondering why
 The Arules were ever made for us if G#mwe never abide
 DBut what if I was the Aproblem the whole Etime?
 Well, I'd beg forF#mgiveness and oblige
 The Aground just opened wide and ate me Dwhole
 DWhy am I sAo happy I coulEd die?
 Well, here were no F#mwords to say goodbye
 And the Aground just opened wideD

HAVE MERCY

A PLACE OF OUR OWN

TUNING: standard

CAPO: none

INTRO:

I'll tell you how it went

And all the time we spent

Trying to make something of us

C#m D

Something we knew but never was

Laid faced down on the bed

And spoke in tongues with the dead

The times you saw me lose my cool

C#m D

The stares were blank, the words were cruel

D E

But what if I was the problem the whole time?

Well, I'd beg forgiveness and oblige

The ground just opened wide and ate me whole

Why am I so happy I could die?

There were no words to say goodbye

The ground just opened wide and ate you whole

Figured they'd figure out soon

They'd never put a man on the moon

And no one knows the truth

C#m D

Pete Rose and Babe Ruth

What if you got there to see
