Mercy Mercy Me lyrics

Mercy Mercy Me
Marvin Gaye


Verse 1:
Emaj7 Emaj7
Ah, mercy,
mercy me,
C#m7 C#m7 F#m7
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no,
no.
F#m7
Where did all the blue skies go?
Amaj7 Amaj7
Poison is the
wind that blows from the north and south and east.

Verse 2:
Mercy,
mercy me,
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no.
Oil wasted on
the ocean and upon
our seas fish full of mercury,

Verse 3:
Oh,
mercy, mercy me.
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no,
no.
Radiation underground and in the sky;
animals and birds who live near
by are dying.

Verse 4:
Oh, mercy, mercy me.
Ah, things ain't what
they used to be.
What about this over crowded land?
How much more abuse
from man can she stand?
