      "Loving Arms"
The Bellfuries
from the LP "Workingman's Bellfuries"

[Intro]
F#m                            A
Cease-fire, soldier, lay the weapon at your feet
F#m                                 A
Give up your arms to hold her and concede defeat
    D                        Bm                     A
Ah ooh ooh ooh It's sweet surrender in your loving arms

[Verse]
A
These days love's light is a nuclear white
      C#m          G    A
Your smile was an atom bomb
       C#m                                A
Your kisses were the missiles, and they landed on my lips
     E7                                              A
My resistance was a pittance up against your loving arms
A
From the dugout trenches where the wounded take retreat
      C#m          G             A
I set off with my army, keen to kill
   C#m                          A
We took our position, eyed the oncoming opposition
        E7
Then hightailed it back into the hills

[Chorus]
F#m                            A
Cease-fire, soldier, lay the weapon at your feet
F#m                                 A
Give up your arms to hold her and concede defeat
    D                        Bm                     A
Ah ooh ooh ooh It's sweet surrender in your loving arms

[Verse]
A
Flank, charge, tank desant, surface to ai
C#m          G              A
Blitzkrieg, bait & bleed, chemical warfare
C#m                   A
Line 'em all up and watch 'em all fail
  E7                      A
Running on a rat wheel, chasing your tail

[Chorus]
F#m                            A
Cease-fire, soldier, lay the weapon at your feet
F#m                                 A
Give up your arms to hold her and concede defeat
    D                        Bm                     A
Ah ooh ooh ooh It's sweet surrender in your loving arms
