 Am AmMaj7 Am7   G    Gm  Bb  Fmaj7  Am

Am
And the mercy seat is waiting
AmMaj7
And I think my head is burning
Am7
And in a way I'm yearning
       G                                   Gm
To be done with all this weighing of the truth.

An eye for an eye
                   Bb
And a tooth for a tooth
                      Fmaj7
And anyway I told the truth
                       Am
And I'm not afraid to die.
