[Verse 1]
Em7
I went to work this mo'nin', my foreman looked me in the eye,
Em7
he said, "Fella, I don't know what's wrong with ya, bbut you look sick

enough to die".
Em7
He sent me to the company doctor and he examined from head to toe,
Em7
"Whatever's wrong with ya, young man, my x-rays just won't show".

[Chorus]
A7 Em7
I say, angel of mercy, won't you please look down on me?
B7 A7 Em7 *
Angel of mercy, a little mercy is all I need.

[Verse 2]
Em7
The finance company, they just don't receive (garnished) my check,
Em7
they say they want a payment by Friday or they want all the furniture back.
Em7
I went to the credit union to try to get myself a loan,
Em7
they said "I would let ya have it, young man, but we hear that you won't be

workin' here much longer".

[Chorus]
A7 Em7
Angel of mercy, won't you please look down on me?
B7 A7 Em7 *
Oh, Angel of mercy, a little mercy is all I need.

Cut my lights off this mo'nin', they set my furniture outdoors,
Em7
I was listenin' to the weatherman a while ago an' he's say it's gonna rain
