Intro
| [C] | [Csus4] | [C] | [Csus4]
You spend all your time | [Dm] waiting for that | [F] second chance,
For a | [C] break that would [Csus4] make it | [G] okay
There's always some | [Dm] reason to feel | [F] not good enough,
And its | [C] hard at the [Csus4] end of the | [G] day
I need some | [Dm] distraction, Oh, a | [F] beautiful release. |
| [C] Memories [Csus4] seep from my | [G] veins
Let me be | [Dm] empty, oh, and | [F] weightless and maybe,
I'll | [C] find some [Csus4] peace | [G] tonight.
Chorus
In the | [C] arms [Csus4] of the | [C] angel, fly a- | [Em] way... from | here
From this | [F] dark, cold ho- | tel room, and the | [C] endlessness that you | [G] fear
You are | [C] pulled [Csus4] from the | [C] wreckage of your | [Em] silent.... reve- | rie
You're in the | [F] arms of the | angel, may you | [C] find- | [G] -ind, some comfort
| [C] here. | [Csus4] | [C] | [Csus4]
You're so tired of the | [Dm] straight line, and | [F] everywhere you turn,
There's | [C] vultures and [Csus4] thieves at your | [G] back.
the storm keeps on | [Dm] twisting, you keep on | [F] building the lies
That you | [C] make up for [Csus4] all that you | [G] lack.
Don't make no | [Dm] difference, | [F] escaping one last time
It's | [C] easier [Csus4] to | [G] believe...
In this sweet | [Dm] madness, oh, this | [F] glorious sadness,
That | [C] brings me [Csus4] to my | [G] knees.
Chorus
In the | [C] arms [Csus4] of the | [C] angel, fly a- | [Em] way... from | here
From this | [F] dark, cold ho- | tel room, and the | [C] endlessness that you | [G] fear
You are | [C] pulled [Csus4] from the | [C] wreckage of your | [Em] silent.... reve- | rie
You're in the | [F] arms of the | angel, may you | [C] find- | [G] -ind, some comfort
| [C] here. | [Csus4] | [C] | [Csus4] | [C↓]
