Have Mercy typically play in alternate tunings (such as open D or open F), 
but this sounds very close for simple half-step-down tuning.
[Intro]
 G#m   E(x4)
[Verse 1]
G#mIt was always you in the dress, in the bElistering cold
Saying you G#mcan't go home
Why you cEan't go home
G#mCouldn't ever tell if it was your bEreath from the cold or the cigarette
But you G#mcan't go home
Why can't F#you go home
[Chorus]
You used to call me late to Bpick you upC#m  
You're never Eokay, you're never fine
You used to call me late to G#mpick you upF#  
And I would aElways call you mine
We fell in C#mlove, fell in love with the innocence
We were too yEoung, too young, not aware of it
You used to call me late to G#mpick you up
And never tell me wF#hy
And all we'd do is dG#mriveF#  E  F#  
[Verse 2]
G#mI'm still a beast of burdenF#  
You're still a dream to meE  
Yet I'm so uncertain I won't F#ever come to terms with everything
G#mDoes it run through your head?
F#Does it keep you awake?
I got this bEatch of jokes and phrases
And it's mF#ore than I can take
[Chorus]
You used to call me late to Bpick you upC#m  
You're never Eokay, you're never fine
You used to call me late to G#mpick you upF#  
And I would aElways call you mine
We fell in C#mlove, fell in love with the innocence
We were too yEoung, too young, not aware of it
You used to call me late to G#mpick you up
And never tell me wF#hy
[Bridge]
G#mYou've got someone new who loves you
D#mA house and a bunch of kids
I never tG#mook the same route
And it's F#all I think about
You've C#mgot someone new who loves you
D#mA house and a bunch of kids
I never tEook the same route
And it's F#all I think about
[Chorus]
You used to call me late to Bpick you upC#m  
You're never Eokay, you're never fine
You used to call me late to G#mpick you upF#
