In The Arms Of The Angel Tab

by Sarah Mclachlan


                        
Spend all your time waiting
          
For that second chance
                               
For a break that would make it okay
                     
There’s always some reason
           
To feel not good enough
                               
And it’s hard at the end of the day
                
I need some distraction
                
Oh beautiful release
                     
Memory seeps from my veins
            
Let me be empty
      
And weightless and maybe
                       
I’ll find some peace tonight

         
In the arms of an angel
      
Fly away from here
           
From this dark cold hotel room
                             
And the endlessness that you fear
         
You are pulled from the wreckage
          
Of your silent reverie
                         
You’re in the arms of the angel
                          
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight life
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting
Keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You were pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
