Nick Cave - Mercy SeatI was reading the tabs on this site and came up with this alternative.The verse is Em and Bm but I think the song is the Em bar chord on fret 7 5th string and fret 7 barred accross from the 5th string like this:--7---7--|--8---7--|--9---7--|--9---7--|--7---7--|---------|
This doesn't apply to the verse which I use all bar chords for. The guitar chords in the Nick Cave recording are just strung once and let ring with a whole bunch echoe and droney stuff.
Em Bm I began to warm and chill
Em Bm To objects and their fields
Em Bm A ragged cup, a twisted mop
Em Bm The face of Jesus in my soup
Em Bm Those sinister dinner deals
Em Bm The meal trolley's wicked wheels
Em Bm A hooked bone rising from my
Em Bm food. All things good or ungood.
Em And the mercy seat is waiting
Em And I think my head is burning
Bm And in a way I'm yearning to be
D done with all this measuring of
Dm truth, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a
F tooth, And anyway I told the
C Em truth, And I'm not afraid to die.
etc. Look at other chord tabs for full lyrics and song structure. Thanks.
