[Intro]
C Fmaj7 C
[Verse 1]
C Dm7 F
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
C F G
For the break that would make it okay
Dm7 F
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
C F G
And it's hard at the end of the day
Dm7 F
I need some distraction, a beautiful release
C F G
Memories seep from my veins
Dm7 F
Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe
C F G
I'll find some peace tonight
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here
F C G
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Em
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
F C G C Fmaj7 C
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
[Verse 2]
Dm7 F
So tired of this straight line, and everywhere you turn
C F G
There's vultures and theives at your back
Dm7 F
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
C F G
That you make up for all that you lack.
Dm7 F
It don't make no difference, escaping one last time
C F G
It's easier to believe
Dm7 F
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
C F G
That brings me to my knees.
[Chorus]
C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here
F C G
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Em
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
F C G C Fmaj7 C
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
