[A] [G#] [E]
[A]
Oh these arms that hang here by my side
Yeah these arms they'll let you open wide
Oh [D] you'll still saw with nothing [A] left to do
Since these arms
[E] stopped [A] holding you
Oh these arms are worthless now to me
They'll let you go so how good could they be
Just a [D] foolish heart for which I [A] have no need
A pair of arms that [E] grew weak and set [A] love free
[E] Reaching out to embrace a vacant memory
[A] [E] Finding just a empty space around what's left of me
[G] [A] Two arms that fell [D] completely
Armed both so [C#m] tightly
[B] Keep paying the costly [E] tragic strain
[A]
[C#m] [D]
[A]
[E] [A]
[E] Trying meekly to assess my struggle with the truth
[A] [E] Oh unable to resist what tears still make us feel
[G] [A] Two arms that fell [D] completely
Armed both scarred so [C#m] [B] tightly
Keep paying the costly [E] tragic strain
Oh [A] these arms that hang here by my side
Oh these arms they'll let you open wide
[D] Oh you'll still saw with nothing left [A] to do
Since these arms [E] stopped holding [A] you
[D] Oh since [A] these arms [E] stopped [A] holding you
[E] [A]
