            [Intro]
G  D  G  D
[Verse 1]
                    Em
Spend all your time waitin'
           G
For that second chance
      D                G       A
For a break that would make it okay
                    Em 
There's always some reason
        G  
To feel not good enough
         D           G          A
And it's hard at the end of the day
               Em
I need some distraction
   G
Oh beautiful release
D        G            A
Memories seep from my veins
          Em        G
Let me be empty and weightless
               D         G       A
And maybe I'll find some peace tonight
[Chorus]
       D   
In the arms of the angel
     F#m
Fly away from here
          G
From this dark cold hotel room
        D                    A
And the endlessness that you fear
        D  
You are pulled from the wreckage
        F#m
Of your silent reverie
              G
You're in the arms of the angel
        D G A
May you f-i-nd 
             D
some comfort here
[Verse 2]
                Em
So tired of the straight line
    G
And everywhere you turn
        D            G               A
There's vultures and thieves at your back
               Em
Storm keeps on twistin'
        G
keep on building the lies
         D           G            A
That you make up for all that you lack
                 Em
It don't make no difference
  G
Escaping one last time
     D      G    A
It's easier to believe 
              Em
in this sweet madness
        G                     D         G      A
Oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
[Chorus]
       D   
In the arms of the angel
     F#m
Fly away from here
          G
From this dark cold hotel room
        D                    A
And the endlessness that you fear
        D  
You are pulled from the wreckage
        F#m
Of your silent reverie
              G
You're in the arms of the angel
        D G A
May you f-i-nd 
             D
some comfort here
[Bridge]
              G
You're in the arms of the angel
        D G A
May you f-i-nd 
             D
some comfort here
[Outro]
