 B                  E
Last night I had a dream
 B                   E
The dream I had was true
 B                  E
I fell through the stars
 B                   E
Went walking on the moon
 G#m                     E              F#
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms

 B                        E
The skin under my finger tips
 B                  E
Honeysuckle of her lips
 B               E                G#m
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
 E                          F#
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?

    B  E   B  E  B  E
But Amen. Amen Amen

 B                       E
Last night we were born together
 B                       E
It was like weʼd always been
 B                 E
Sheʼll be with me forever
 B                  E
If I donʼt see her again
 G#m                 E                 F#
We poured the wine until our cup ran over

 B                  E
Unfolding like the mystery
 B                  E
Inside of her like poetry
 B                 E                  G#m
A thousand horses running through my veins
 E                           F#
Mercy, mercy what else can I say

    B  E   B  E  B  E
But Amen. Amen Amen

 G#m                 E
I laid down in her garden
 G#m           E
Naked on her floor
 G#m                  E
Windows up, the curtains blowing
 G#m                  E
She donʼt lock the door

 G#m  E  B  F#  G#m  E  B  F#
Amen,      Amen

 B              E
At the banquet table
 B             E
A beggar at a feast
 B                            E
I felt her tongue between my lips
 B                  E
And I forgot to breath
 G#m                       E                   F#
We stayed there ʼtil the candles burned the carpet

 B                  E
Last night I had a dream
 B                   E
The dream I had was true
 B             E               G#m
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
 E                                  F#
Mercy, mercy, I’ll kneel down and pray

 B  E  B  E
Amen, Amen

 G#m  E  B  F#  G#m  E  B  F#
Amen,      Amen
