Intro: D Gmaj7/B (x2)
Em7 G
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance,
D A
For the break that will make it okay.
Em7 G
There?s always some reason to feel not good enough,
D A
And it?s hard at the end of the day.
Em7 G
I need some distraction or a beautiful release,
D A
Memories seep from my veins.
Em7 G
Let me be empty and weightless and maybe,
D A
I?ll find some peace tonight.
D D9 F#m
In the arms of the angel fly away from here,
G D A
From this dark, cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear.
D D9 F#m
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie,
G D A D
You?re in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
Repeat Intro D Gmaj7/B (x2)
Em7 G
So tired of the straight line and everywhere you turn,
D A
There?s vultures and thieves at your back.
Em7 G
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies,
D A
That make up for all that you lack.
Em7 G
It don?t make no difference, escape one last time,
D A
It?s easier to believe.
Em7 G
In this sweet madness, oh, this glorious sadness,
D A
That brings me to my knees.
Chorus
G D A D
You?re in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
Ending:
D Gmaj7/B (x3)
