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

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

                           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

                        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
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

                        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 )

                 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

              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

E7
I need forgiveness...
                         Am
I need forgiveness from You............
