Verse 1:
  C majorC             G+G
We danced that night so close together
  FF     G+G     C majorC   G+G
We said that we'd never part
 C majorC              G+G
I thought it for worse or for better
   FF       G+G       C majorC
But I didn't see the chains on your heart
     C majorC              G+G
For your father kept the peace in the county
  FF         G+G     C majorC   G+G
And although they say justice is blind
  C majorC           G+G
He led me in cuffs to his jailhouse
  FF     G+G    C majorC
For trying to make you mine

Chorus:
   FF     F minorFm    C majorC
They said your love was taken
    FF   F minorFm    C majorC   G+G
As they led me down the hall
  C majorC           G+G
Now you're in the arms of another
  FF     G+G      C majorC
And I'm in the arms of the law

  C majorC              G+G
Now one day I'll break from this prison
  FF       G+G       C majorC   G+G
To see if there's truth to this tale
    C majorC              G+G
And if you're locked in the arms of another
    FF     G+G       C majorC
I'll be better off locked in this jail

Chorus:
   FF     F minorFm    C majorC
They said your love was taken
    FF   F minorFm    C majorC   G+G
As they led me down the hall
  C majorC           G+G
Now you're in the arms of another
  FF     G+G      C majorC
And I'm in the arms of the law

Yes, I'm in the arms of the law
