Heavy In Yours Arms

Florence + The Machine


Tom: C

Am
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down

   F
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown.

        Am
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across ground

        F
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

   Am
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball

F
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

       Am
I'm so heavy, heavy
              F
Heavy in your arms
       Am
I'm so heavy, heavy
              F
Heavy in your arms

    Am
And is it worth the wait
All this killing time?

        F
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine?

Am
Who is the betrayer?
Who's the killer in the crowd?

    F
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

   Am
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball

F
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

   Am
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball

F
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

       Am
I'm so heavy, heavy
              F
Heavy in your arms
       Am
I'm so heavy, heavy
                 F
So heavy in your arms

Em
This will be my last confession
  Dm                           Am
I love you never felt like any blessing
Em
(Ohhhh)

Em
Whispering like it's a secret
Dm                          Am
Only to condemn the one who hears it
             Em
With a heavy heart

Am                               F
Heavy heavy I'm so heavy in your arms
(I'm so) Heavy heavy I'm so heavy in your arms
(I'm so) Heavy heavy I'm so heavy in your arms
(I'm so) Heavy heavy I'm so heavy in your arms

        Am
I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
   F
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced to crown

        Am
I was a heavy heart to carry
But he never let me down
        F
When he had me in his arms
My feet never touched the ground

         Am                 F
I'm so heavy, heavy in your arms.
Am                          F
Heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms.
