A E Bm D

[Verse 1]
A                               E
You were always handcuffed to a maelstrom
Bm                            D
How you lasted so long I won't know
A                          E
Cancer has a way of taking victims
Bm                        D
And I have a nature to ignore

[Chorus]
D            A                E
So as we run further from the center
D                      A            E
I'll sit here stunned, I was the dissenter
D                        A           G
A stab to the back and a slit to the throat
Bm                          A      E  Bm  D
How do I get back into your arms?

[Verse 2]
A                             E
All along you knew I was just holding
Bm                              D
your hand long enough to warm my own
A                               E
Busy bees forget that they have stingers
Bm                                D
Selfish men forget they have a home

[Chorus]
D            A                E
So as we run further from the center
D                      A            E
I'll sit here stunned, I was the dissenter
D                        A           G
A stab to the back and a slit to the throat
Bm                          Fm  F# D
How do I get back into your arms?

[Outro]
D       Bm      D               Bm
I hurt, I hurt, I hurt, what of you?
      A   E
I paid my price
Bm                          D
How do I get back into your arms?
           A   E
Well I paid my price
Bm                          D
How do I get back into your arms?
               C#m
Back into your arms
