Arms Of A Thief

Em Em D D
Em Em D D


[Verse 1]
Em
Mr. Henry and the muscle man
         D
Gave her shoes on a night there was no room to stand
Em
Like a letter in a stolen purse
        D
She was bored of her weight, she was bored of her words

    Em
The daughter of a soldier told the fallen priest
       D
It's a cold, cold place in the arms of a thief
    Em
And reachin' out to touch the steering wheel
         D                                               Em
She said leave me alone, but just don't leave me here, alright?


[Chorus]
Em   D   Em   D
Alright, alright


[Verse 2]
Em
Mr. Henry and another guy
         D
Gave her gold on a night that it fell from the sky
Em
And like a body when the buzzard came
        D
She was bored of her look, she was bored of her name

    Em
The daughter of a lawyer told the fallen priest
       D
It's a cold, cold place in the arms of a thief
Em
And dabbin' at the arrow in her heel
         D                                               Em
She said leave me alone, but just don't leave me here, alright?


[Chorus]
Em   D   Em   D
Alright, alright

[Verse 3]
Em
Mr. Henry was a dyin' man
       D
With advice in a tongue that she didn't understand
Em
Like the water when the sea got rough
        D
She was bored of the breeze, she was bored of her luck

    Em
The winner and the loser told the fallen priest
       D
It's a cold, cold place in the arms of a thief
Em
And holdin' everything he made her steal
         D                                               Em
She said leave me alone, but just don't leave me here, alright?


[Chorus]
Em   D   Em   D
Alright, alright
