Small Mercies Lyrics & Tabs by Mark Gillespie
Small Mercies
guitar chords lyrics
man's born free, but he lives in chains
that's what some wealthy Frenchman said
and there's really no such thing as pain
it's just some feeling in your head
and there's a world outside your door
and they're all screaming to get in
yeah, but you keep fooling yourself
they're all ignored
there're some who lose
the rest just never seem to win
but you know you should be grateful
for small mercies
it hasn't got as bad as it's gonna get
you know you should be grateful
for small mercies
it hasn't got as bad as it's gonna get
you know you should be grateful
for small mercies
I tell you, it's gonna get a whole lot worse yet
so you've fallen out of love
cross it off the list
it's just another love-affair that's through
the days are dragging on so long now
you don't know what you're going to do
you're carrying the world
on your shoulders
it gets so heavy that
you just can't cope
in the old days you'd bounce back
but now you've thrown it all away
yeah, and you've given up all hope
but you know you should be grateful
for small mercies
I tell you there's a whole lot worse off than you
you know you should be grateful
for small mercies
at least you've got some say in what you do
you've got to be grateful
for small mercies
you've got to be thankful
for small mercies, mercy!
