    Verse 1
    Looking 
    down 
    on 
    empty 
    streets, 

    all 
    she 
    can 
    see 

    Are 
    the 
    dreams 
    all 
    made 
    solid 

    Are 
    the 
    dreams 
    all 
    made 
    real 

    All 
    of 
    the 
    buildings, 
    all 
    of 
    those 
    cars 

    Were 
    once 
    just 
    dream 

    In 
    somebody's 
    head 

    She 
    pictures 
    the 
    broken 
    glass, 

    she 
    pictures 
    the 
    steam 

    She 
    pictures 
    soul 

    With 
    no 
    leak 
    at 
    the 
    seam 

    Let's 
    take 
    the 
    boat 
    out 

    Wait 
    until 
    darkness 

    Let's 
    take 
    the 
    boat 
    out 

    Wait 
    until 
    darkness 
    comes 

    Verse 2
    Nowhere 
    in 
    the 
    corridors 

    of 
    pale 
    green 
    and 
    grey 

    Nowhere 
    in 
    the 
    suburbs 

    In 
    the 
    cold 
    light 
    of 
    day 

    There 
    in 
    the 
    midst 
    of 
    it 

    so 
    alive 
    and 
    alone 

    Words 
    support 
    like 
    bone 

    Chorus 1
    Dreaming 
    of 
    Mer
    cy 
    Street 

    Wear 
    your 
    inside 
    out 

    Dreaming 
    for 
    mercy 

    In 
    your 
    daddy's 
    arms 
    a
    gain 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    Mer
    cy 
    Street 

    'Swear 
    they 
    moved 
    that 
    sign 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    mercy 

    In 
    your 
    daddy's 
    arms 


    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    Pulling 
    out 
    the 
    papers 

    from 
    drawers 
    that 
    slide 
    smooth 

    Tugging 
    at 
    the 
    darkness, 
    word 
    upon 
    word 

    Con
    fessing 
    all 
    the 
    secret 
    things 

    in 
    the 
    warm 
    velvet 
    box 

    To 
    the 
    priest, 
    he's 
    the 
    doctor 

    He 
    can 
    handle 
    the 
    shocks 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    the 
    tenderness, 

    the 
    tremble 
    in 
    the 
    hips 

    Of 
    kissing 
    Mary's 
    lips 

    Chorus 2
    Dreaming 
    of 
    Mer
    cy 
    Street 

    Wear 
    your 
    inside 
    out 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    mercy 

    In 
    your 
    daddy's 
    arms 
    a
    gain 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    Mer
    cy 
    Street 

    Swear 
    they 
    moved 
    that 
    sign 

    Looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    In 
    your 
    daddy's 
    arms 


    Interlude 2


    Bridge 1
    Mercy, 
    mercy, 
    looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    Looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    Mercy, 
    looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    Looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    Looking 
    for 
    mercy, 
    oh 
    lord 

    Mercy, 
    looking 
    for 
    mercy 

    Outro 1
    Anne, 
    with 
    her 
    father 
    is 
    out 
    in 
    the 
    boat 

    Riding 
    the 
    water 

    Riding 
    the 
    waves 
    on 
    the 
    sea

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
