--------------------------------------------------------------------------- MERCY OF MARIA - Midnight Choir --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: standard One of my favourite songs, from their "Amsterdam stranded"-album. Played on piano on the recording, but works just as well on a guitar. Chords: : 002210 : 133211 : 355433 Intro: Verse 1: As I drink too much, as I scream out of lust At the moon for someone to touch me Verse 2: As I fail to please, what the moon won't ease I can't sit still from running wild Verse 3: As I wipe my past for something good to last As demons are crawling under my skin Verse 4: As I walk away there's nothing to do but pray That Maria will take me in her arms Chorus: At the mercy of Maria Where I lay my aching head At the mercy of Maria Will I find my resting place repeat chorus once, then outro in Am
