C   Em    G     D


[Verse 1]
     C
Just say to me
              E
You'll be the fool this time
       G
You'll take my place
                D
For a little while

       C
You'll give me a chance
              Em
You'll let me break you down
       G
Let me use you up
               D
You'll show me how


[Bridge]
C   Em     D
Oh,     my love


[Verse 2]
     C
Your pretty little wings
             Em
They must be getting tired
          G
Trying to keep your feet
           D
Up off the ground

         C
Let's go back
                        Em
To the days beneath the Northern Lights
        G
When we danced so free
              D
Like a little child


[Chorus]
C   Em     D
Oh,     my love
                         C         Em     D
You thought I'd left without you
    C   Em     D
But oh,     my love
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you


C   Em    G     D
C   Em    G     D


[Verse 3]
     C
Just say to me
            Em
You'll lie awake this time
       G
You'll watch me sleep
                     D
Straight through the night

C
No more dreams
       Em
Must I sacrifice
   G
My heart is safe
       D
You'll guard it with your life


[Chorus]
C   Em     D
Oh,     my love
                         C         Em     D
You thought I'd left without you
    C   Em     D
But oh,     my love
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you


C    Em    D
C    Em    D
C    Em    D
C    Em    D


C   Em     D
Oh,     my love
                         C         Em     D
You thought I'd left without you
    C   Em     D
But oh,     my love
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you
                  C           Em      D
My arms were always around you
