Intro:  Full G with hammer on and off the A chord

1st verse

        G
Use the truth  as a weapon
    G/E
To beat up all your friends
      G
Every chink in the armor
     G/E
An excuse to cause offense
          D
And the boys from the hallways
            Em
Calling out your name
         C
and true love
                  G
Will find them in the end


Pre-Chorus

C            G
    You were restless
      D              Em
I was somewhere less secure
C             G              D
    So I went running to the road
C             G         D                   Em
   and so now that this long list of places I was
C              G              D
     I quit my rambling and I came home

Chorus

            C     G       C                 Em
Cause maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
      C     G       C                 Em
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

2nd verse

         G
Use your saints and your mantra
        G/E
And you things that keep you calm
       G
If you stay with that asshole
       G/E
He? gonna do you harm

Pre-Chorus

        D                           Em
There's a voice calling loudly on the radio - just for you
         C                        G
and good fortune will find him in the end


Chorus

      C     G       C                 Em
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
      C     G       C                 Em
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
      C     G       C                 Em
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
      C     G       C                 Em
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
