The song revolves around the D
[Verse 1]
GD/F#Em
I was sitting in a crummy movie,
DCG/BAm7D
With my hands on my chin,
GD/F#Em
Oh the violence that occurs,
DCG/BAm7D
Seems like we never win
[Chorus]
GD/F#
Love and mercy,
EmDCG/BAm7D
That's what you need tonight
GD/F#Em
So, love and mercy to you,
DCG/BAm7D
And your friends tonight
[Verse 2]
GD/F#
I was lying in my room,
EmDCG/BAm7D
And the news came on TV,
GD/F#Em
A lot of people out there hurting,
DCG/BAm7D
And it really scares me!
[Chorus]
GD/F#
Love and mercy,
EmDCG/BAm7D
That's what you need tonight
GD/F#Em
So, love and mercy to you,
DCG/BAm7D
And your friends tonight
[Verse 3]
GD/F#
I was standing in a crowded bar,
EmDCG/BAm7D
And watching all the people there,
GD/F#Em
Oh, the loneliness in this world,
DCG/BAm7D
Well, it's just not fair
[Bridge]

And your friends tonight
