[Intro]
A D A D
[Verse 1]
Bm D
Spend all your ti-me waiting for that second chance
A A/D# E
For the break that will make it Ok
Bm D
There's always some rea-son to feel not good enough
A A/D# E
And it's hard at the end of the day
Bm D
I need some dis-traction or a beautiful release
A A/D# E
Mem-ories seep from my veins
Bm D
Let me be empty and weightless and maybe
A A/D# E
I'll find some peace tonight
[Chorus]
A C#m
In the arms of the Angel fly away from here
D
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the
A A/D# E
End-lessness that you fear
A C#m
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
D Dsus4 D A A/D# E
You're in the arms of the Angel; may you find (hold)
A D A D
some comfort here
[Verse 2]
Bm D
So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
A A/D# E
There's vultures and thieves at your back
Bm D
The storm keeps on twist-ing, you keep on building the lies
A A/D# E
That you make up for all that you lack
Bm D
It don't make no--difference, escaping one last time
A A/D# E
It's easi-er to believe
Bm D
In this sweet madness, oh this glo-ri-ous sadness
A A/D# E
That brings me to my knees
[Chorus]
A C#m
In the arms of the Angel fly away from here
D
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the
A A/D# E
End-lessness that you fear
A C#m
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
D Dsus4 D A A/D# E
You're in the arms of the Angel; may you find (hold)
A D A D
some comfort here
D Dsus4 D A A/D# E
You're in the arms of the Angel; may you find (hold)
[Outro]
A D A D
some comfort here
End with A

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty
Oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you feel
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you feel
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
