Sweet Arms of a Tune Missy Higgins
Capo 3
(After the chorus she does a little finger picking.
I'm not 100% on this part but it goes a little something like this -

She plays the C chord as X32003. Not sure what the true name is.)
[Em](OOoo[G]oooO[C]OOOOooo) [Em](OO[G]oo[C]oooOOOOOooo)
H[Em]e told her when she played,
wings spr[Am]outed from her sh[Em]oulder blades
And e[G]very bone inside her seemed to [D]change.
So o[Em]n her fingers moved
Over n[Am]otes she hoped would s[Em]oothe,
His ja[G]gged soul, caressing every gr[D]oove.
Oh an[C]d how she longed to s[G]ay
That she'd mi[Em]ssed his troubled w[D]ays,
Oh an[C]d if she could she'd d[G]o it all agai[D]n.
Cause sometim[C]es every word has been u[Bm]sed,
And theres [Em]nothing left to d[D]o
C G D *
But hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune.
A ye[Em]ar ago today New York C[Am]ity seemed to f[Em]all away,
To l[G]eave only the bed in which they l[D]aid.
But an [Em]island is just that
Oh and w[Am]hen the world came f[Em]looding back
All pi[G]llars underneath them began to cr[D]ack
Now he[C]'s sitting on her fl[Bm]oor
She's playing a[Em]ll the minor cho[D]rds
Wishi[C]ng so damn hard he'd k[G]iss her like befo[D]re
Somet[C]imes every word has been [Bm]used,
And theres no[Em]thing left to d[D]o
Cadd9 G D *
But hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune.
Yeah[C] hold the one you c[G]an't love in the s[D]weet arms of a tun[Em]e. [G] [C]
(O[Em]OOO[G]Oo[C]oooo) [Em](OO[G]OO[C]Oooooo)
Cause sometime[C]s every inch of you is [G]bruised,
And theres no[Em]thing left to pro[D]ve
C G D *
So just hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune.
C G D *
Yeah hold the one you can't love in the sweet arms of a tune.
