Intro:

This has to be played very fast to sound right. Do it a couple of times and it

will work.

If you're ready for the street

You wanna mix it in some fight

Let me tell you somethin'

Now I don't wanna get you uptight

But if you're in a corner

And you can't find no way out

Don't look around for no help

No, no there won't be any around

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

G

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

E

So you think you got a case

And you think you know the score

No you don't wanna listen

You can't be told no more

But wait'll you get out there

You better do it right

'Cause the streets are lined with things that kill

And they're hidin' in the night

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

G

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Feel that you can cut it

You think you got the time

They'll only give you one chance

Better get it right first time

And the game you're playing

If you lose you gotta pay

If you make just one wrong move

You'll get blown away

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

Expect no mercy, expect no mercy

There is a middle part and it seems to go like this:

D|--10-------------------------------7---------------------5------------------|
