INTRO
These arms that hang here by my side,
E
These arms that ache to open wide.
A D
Useless arms with nothing left to do,
A E A
Since these arms stopped holding you.
These arms are worthless now to me,
E
They let you go so how good could they be?
A D
Just foolish arms for which I have no need,
A E A D A
A pair of arms that grew weak and set love free.
E D A
Reaching out to embrace a vacant memory,
E
Finding just the empty space,
E G
Around what's left of me.
A
Two arms that failed completely,
D
Arms both scarred so deeply.
B7 E
Keep paying love's costs with each tragic sway.
A E A D A E D A
INSTRUMENTAL
E D A
Trying meekly to assist my struggle with the truth.
E E G
Unable to resist what tears still make us view.
