HAVE MERCY JUDGE
As recorded by Chuck Berry
(From the 1970 Album BACK HOME)

[Intro]
A G D E E7

[Verse 1]
A
Have mercy, I'm in a world of trouble now
D A
I'm being held by the State Patrol
D
I am charged with traffic of the forbidden
A
And I almost finished doing my parole
E D
Now, I'm on my way back down town
A D A E7
Somebody help me, have mercy on my soul

[Verse 2]
A D
I go to court tomorrow morning
A
And I got the same judge I had before
D A D
Lord, I know he won't have no mercy on me
A
Because he told me not to come back no more
E7 A7
He'll send me away to some stoney mansion
D A7 D A E7
In a lonely room and lock the door

[Verse 3]
A D
Ow! Lord have mercy on my little Tulane
A7
She's too alive to try to live alone
D
And I know her needs
D
And although she loves me
A
She's going to try to make it
A
While the poor boy's gone
E7
Somebody should tell her to live
E7
And I'll understand it
D
And even love her more
A D A
When I come back home
