Nick Cave - The Mercy Seat, аккорды

Em
          
B/E
  
I began to warm and chill 
Em
          
B/E
  
To objects and their fields 
Em
               
B/E
  
A
 ragged cup, a twisted mop 
Em
                 
B/E
  
The face of Jesus in my soup 
Em
              
B/E
  
Those sinister dinner deals 
Em
                  
B/E
  
The meal trolley's wicked wheels 
Em
             
B/E
  
A
 hooked bone rising from my 
Em
                  
B/E
  
food.   All things good or ungood. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is waiting 
 
E5/B
  
And I think my head is burning 
E5
                
E5/B
  
And in a way I'm yearning to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
  
done with all this measuring of 
D5
                      
D5/A
  
truth,   An eye for an eye and a tooth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
  
tooth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
  
truth,   And I'm not afraid to die. 
 
Em
         
B/E
  
Interpret signs and catalogue 
Em
           
B/E
  
A
 blackened tooth, a scarlet fog 
Em
             
B/E
  
The walls are bad.  Black.  Bottom kind. 
Em
            
B/E
  
They are the sick breath at my hind 
Em
            
B/E
  
They are the sick breath at my hind 
Em
            
B/E
  
They are the sick breath at my hind 
Em
            
B/E
  
They are the sick breath gathering 
Em
     
B/E
  
at my hind. 
 
E5
      
E5/B
  
I hear stories from the 
E5
                       
E5/B
  
chamber, How Christ was born into a 
E5
                    
E5/B
  
manger And like some ragged stranger 
D5
             
D5/A
  
Died upon the cross, And might I 
D5
               
D5/A
  
say it seems so fitting in its 
F5
            
F5/C
  
way He was a carpenter by 
C5
            
C5/G
  
trade, Оr at least that's what I'm 
Em
  
B/E
  
told. 
 
Em
 
B/E
 
 
Em
     
B/E
 
Like my good hand 
Em
          
B/E
 
I tattooed Е.V.I.L. across it's 
Em
           
B/E
 
brother's fist 
Em
           
B/E
 
That filthy five! They did 
Em
          
B/E
 
nothing to resist. 
 
E5
             
E5/B
 
In heaven His throne is made of gold 
E5
              
E5/B
 
The ark of His testament is 
E5
                      
E5/B
 
stowed,  
A
 throne from which I'm told all 
D5
              
D5/A
history does unfold, Down here it's 
D5
                
D5/A
 
made of wood and wire, And my 
F5
          
F5/C
 
body is on fire 
C5
          
C5/G
 
And God is never far away. 
 
Em
        
B/E
 
Into the mercy seat I climb 
Em
          
B/E
 
My head is shaved, my head is 
Em
                  
B/E
 
wired,  And like a moth that tries to 
D5
                
D5/A
 
enter the bright eye, so I go 
D5
             
D5/A
 
shuffling out life,  Just to 
F5
               
F5/C
 
hide in death a while 
C5
      
C5/G
And anyway I never lied. 
 
Em
            
B/E
 
My kill-hand is called Е.V.I.L. 
Em
               
B/E
 
Wears a wedding band that's GООD,
Em
           
B/E
 
'Tis a long suffering shackle 
Em
                  
B/E
 
Collaring all that rebel blood 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is waiting 
 
E5/B
 
And I think my head is burning 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm yearning to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
 
done with all this measuring of 
D5
                      
D5/A
 
truth,   An eye for an eye and a tooth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
tooth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
 
truth,   And I'm not afraid to die. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is burning 
 
E5/B
And I think my head is glowing 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm hoping to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
done with all this weighing up of 
D5
                      
D5/A
 
truth,   An eye for an eye and a tooth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
tooth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
 
truth,   And I'm not afraid to die. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is glowing 
 
E5/B
And I think my head is smoking 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm hoping to be 
D5
                   
D5/A
 
done with all these looks of disbeleif 
D5
                 
D5/A
 
    An eye for an eye and a tooth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
 
tooth,   And anyway I there was no 
C5
        
C5/G
proof,   Nor a motive why. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is smoking 
 
E5/B
And I think my head is melting 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm helping to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
 
done with all this twisting of 
D5
                      
D5/A
 
truth,   An eye for an eye and a truth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
truth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
 
truth,   And I'm not afraid to die. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is melting 
 
E5/B
 
And I think my blood is boiling 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm spoiling all the 
D5
                 
D5/A
 
fun with all this truth and consequence 
D5
                 
D5/A
 
    An eye for an eye and a truth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
 
truth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
 
truth,   And I'm not afraid to die. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is waiting 
 
E5/B
And I think my head is burning 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm yearning to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
 
done with all this measurement of 
D5
                      
D5/A
 
proof,   
A
 lie for a lie and a truth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
truth,   And anyway there was no 
C5
                
C5/G
 
proof,   And I'm not afraid to tell a lie. 
 
E5
 
And the mercy seat is waiting 
 
E5/B
 
And I think my head is burning 
E5
                
E5/B
 
And in a way I'm yearning to be 
D5
                  
D5/A
 
done with all this measurment of 
D5
                      
D5/A
 
proof,   An eye for an eye and a truth for a 
F5
               
F5/C
truth,   And anyway I told the 
C5
                
C5/G
 
truth,   And I'm afraid I told a lie.
