Dwight Yoakam - These arms

These ^Aarms that hang here by my side, These arms that ache to open ^Ewide, Useless ^Aarms, with nothing left to ^Ddo, Since these ^Aarms, ^Estopped holding ^Ayou

These ^Aarms are worthless now to me, They let you go so how good could they ^Ebe? Just foolish ^Aarms for which I have no ^Dneed, A pair of ^Aarms that grew ^Eweak and set love ^Efree ^{D A E}

^EReaching out to embrace a vacant memo^Dry,^{A E E}Finding just the empty space, around what's left of me ^{E G A A}Two arms that failed completely, ^DArms both scarred so deeply, ^B7Keep paying loves cost with each tragic ^Esway

^ETrying meekly to assess my struggle with the truth ^{D A E E}Unable to resist what tears still make us view ^{E G A A}Two arms that failed completely, ^DArms both scarred so deeply, ^B7Keeps paying loves cost with each tragic ^Esway These ^Aarms that hang here by my side These arms that ache to open ^Ewide Useless ^Aarms with nothing left to ^Ddo Since these ^Aarms, ^Estopped holding ^Ayou ^D Since these ^Aarms, ^Estopped holding you ^{A A}
