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 A A pair of arms that grew weak and set love free. E A Reaching out to embrace a vacant 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 E Keep paying love's costs with each tragic sway. A E A A INSTRUMENTAL E A Trying meekly to assist my struggle with the truth. E EG Unable to resist what tears still make us view. A Two arms that failed completely, D Arms both scarred so deeply. B7 E Keep paying love's costs with each tragic sway. A 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 D Since these arms stopped holding you. A E A Since these arms stopped holding you. ************************************************************************************** \/ = dive and return w/ bar / = slide up ************************************************************************************** LEAD SOLO (w/ reverb) AA w/bar w/bar E----------------------------------------------------------------------2--------- B--------------------------------------------------------------------5-2-5\/\/--- G------------------------------------------------------------1-2----4----4\/\/--- D--7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2--------7-7-7-6-6-6-4-4-4-4---2/9-------------- A---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0-4\/4---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
