    HAVE MERCY        The Judds


Intro

      D                                     G
1.)  I was standing in line at the         city bus stop 
2.)  You say you won't home             because you're working late
3.)  Well I called you up on the          telephone
4.)   Well I went to the bank with my little check book

             D                                A
           Soaked to skin from              every rain drop
Honey I'm no fool you've been         out on a date.
   I       could hear you were play      Hackerty and Jones
            The cashier he gave me the    strangest look
      D                                                      G
I    see you driving by like a                             phantom jet,
Lipstick on your collar gives your                    game away 
I    knew right then there was                           something wrong
He said you ain't got no money 'cause you're    overdrawn
          D                                A         D
with your arm around some               little      brunette
Strawberry red and mine's                  pink      Rose.
There's only one reason you play       cheating songs.
Your man took it all and he's              darn       gone.

CHORUS:
 D           G        D                         A
Have Mercy   on me.  You treat so bad I'm in misery.
           D                G              D              A       D
You're breaking my heart, can't you see  baby baby Have Mercy on me
