Intro
[Bb7sus4] [B7sus4]
[Emaj7]Whoa oh, mercy, mercy me
[C#m7] Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, [F#m7]no where did all the blue sky go
[Amaj7] Poison is the wind that blows
[Amaj7] From the north, east, south, and [Emaj7]sea
[Emaj7] Whoa, mercy, mercy me
[C#m7] Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, [F#m7]no oil wasted on the oceans
And [Amaj7]upon our seas fish full of mercury, ah..
[Emaj7] Oh, mercy, mercy me
[C#m7] Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, [F#m7]no radiation underground and in [Amaj7]the sky
[Amaj7] Animals and birds who live nearby are [Emaj7]dying
[Emaj7] Oh, mercy, mercy me
[C#m7] Oh, things ain't what they [F#m7]used.... to be
[F#m7] What about this overcrowded [Amaj7]land
[Amaj7] How much more abuse from man can she stand
[Emaj7]Ooh, ooh, oh, no, no, [C#m7]no, na, na, na
(my sweet Lord)
Na, na, [F#m7]na, na, na
(my sweet Lord)
My, my, [Amaj7]lord, my sweet Lord please....
