Intro
In all my life, Mercy
Hasn't known my name this well
Like how every sea filters out
And leads us gently to a creek
We sit around
Some of us are strong
But the rest of us are weak
So let us down if you must
Let us down easy lord
Let us down easy lord
Let us down
In patches of pink clouds, Thick smoke
It comes rising off the hillside slopes
Down here this neighbourhood
It's the dumps
With cars iced up, perfect
for writing on if
You're wearing gloves
Every season I spend alone
Feels like a thousand to my heart and in my soul
So let me down if you must,
But let us down easy lord
Let us down easy lord
ooh let us down
x2
E/A on third time go into verse
Instead of praying I tell god these jokes
he must be tired of himself so much
he must be more than disappointed Christmas comes
we eat alone a pretty girl surrounds some pretty thought who
Takes your order she yells it and cries alone in
The backroom once it stops then she smiles.
So let her down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down
(let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down
(let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(let us down, let us down, let us down)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
let us down, let us down, let us down (easy)
