Don't hurt me

Gather up the lust in your soul

Into your arms, into your arms

Gather up the painful
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms

What seems impossible
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
I think I have had my fill
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
Bm Fmaj7 Cmaj7
I think I should give up the ghost
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
D Am
Into your arms, into your arms
Throughout the song, guitar 2 is mostly panned right, guitar 3 to the left.
Sometimes they are playing the same thing and sometimes they aren't.
Both guitars have rhythmic variations on what is tabbed, and sometimes some
notes are missed.
Verse

There are variations on this. Sometimes the chord picking continutes into the next chord.
And sometimes one of the A minor chords is played as
