These Arms

A   E   A


[Verse 1]
         A
Oh these arms that hang here by my 
side,
           A                      
Yeah these arms that ache to open 
A7
wide.
            D                      
Are useless arms with nothing left 
   A
to do,
            A   E                
Since these arms stopped holding 
A
you.


[Verse 2]
         A
Oh these arms are worthless now to 
me,
             A                   
They let you go so how good could 
          A7
they be?
             D                     
Just foolish arms for which I have 
   A
no need,
          A              E        
A pair of arms that grew weak and 
         A    D  A
set love free.

[Chorus]
E                                 
 Reaching out to embrace a vacant 
       D  A
memory,
E                            
 Finding just the empty space, 
                           G
around what's left of me.
A
 Two arms that failed completely,
D
 Arms both scarred so deeply.
B7                                
 Keep paying love's costs with 
         E
each tragic sway.


[Instrumental]
A     A7   D   A   E   A  D  A


[Chorus]
E                                 
 Trying meekly to assist my 
                  D  A
struggle with the truth.
E                                 
 Unable to resist what tears still
                G
 make us view.
A
 Two arms that failed completely,
D
 Arms both scarred so deeply.
B7                                
 Keep paying love's costs with 
         E
each tragic sway.


[Verse 3]
            A
Wo-oh these arms that hang here by 
my side,
A                                 
Woah these arms that ache to open 
    A7
wide.
            D                      
Two useless arms with nothing left 
   A
to do,
A               E                
Since these arms stopped holding 
A   D
you.
            A   E                
Since these arms stopped holding 
A      E7    A
you.
