Aimee Mann - Have Mercy
*** Introduction:
He made me feel so second-best
G F F2
I never should have let him do it
C F Am
but when he makes his pretty mess
G F F2
somehow you just fall into it
*** Chorus:
D
Have mercy on him
F C F F2
the love that I gave him is gone
D
Have mercy on him
F C F F2 Fm
the love that I saved for him is gone
*** Verse 2:
He wasn't just another touch C F Am
he was something I created G F F2
and though I loved him much too much C F Am
I never thought my love was wasted G F F2

Have mercy on him D
the love that I gave him is gone F C F F2

the love that I saved for him is gone F C F F2 Fm

*** Verse 3:
How do you know who you should blame? C F Am
You spend your love, or you conserve it G F F2
