capo 3

Em Am Em Em Am Em
ooooooooooooh , ooooooooooooh

Em
he told her when she played ,
Am Em
wings sprouted from her shoulder blades
G D
and every bone inside her seemed to change .
Em
so on her fingers moved
Am Em
over notes she hoped would soothe ,
G D
his jagged soul , carressing every groove .

C G
oh and how she longed to say
Em D
that she’d missed his troubled ways ,
C G D
oh and if she could she’d do it all again .
C G
cause sometimes every word has been used ,
Em D
and theres nothing left to do
C G D G6 *
but hold the one you can’t have in the sweet arms of a tune .

Em Am Em
a year ago today new york city seemed to fall away ,
G D
to leave only the bed in which they laid .
Em
but an island is just that
Am Em
oh and when the world came flooding back
G D
all pillars underneath them began to crack

C G
now he’s sitting on her floor
Em D
she’s playing all the minor chords
C G D
wishing so damn hard he’d kiss her like before
C G
sometimes every word has been used ,
Em D
and theres nothing left to do
C G D G
but hold the one you can’t have in the sweet arms of a tune .
C G D Em Am Em
yeah hold the one you can’t love in the sweet arms of a tune .

Em Am Em Am Em
ooooooooooooh , oooh

C G
cause sometimes every inch of you is bruised ,
Em D
and theres nothing left to prove
C G D G
so just hold the one you can’t have in the sweet arms of a tune .
C G D G6 *
yeah hold the one you can’t love in the sweet arms of a tune .
