               Dm
Falling on the deafest ears
F              Gm          A
But I know you hear my tears
               Dm
Crying to the blindest eyes
F              Gm          A
But I know you see the lies

        A#      Gm
That's you, oh lord
     Dm                     F
You got more bones than a graveyard
      A#       Gm
It's true, oh lord
 A
There's more love in a dead man's arms

Dm               F              A# A
Dead man's arms, dead man's arms
Dm               F              A# A
Dead man's arms, dead man's arms

So blame it on the down-below
Take it from the weakest soul
Bury all your sorrow
Till the dead don't seem so cold

That's you, oh Lord
You got more bones than a graveyard
It's true, oh Lord
There's more love in a dead man's arms

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)

A# Gm
Oh lord
             Dm           F
You got more bones than a graveyard
     A#       Gm
It's true, oh lord
A
There's more love in a dead man's arms

Dm               F
Dead man's arms, dead man's arms
Gm                     A
There's more love in a dead man's arms
Dm                F
Dead man's arms, dead man's arms

Maybe it's built of stone
Maybe it's dark as coal
Used to be a heart, I'm told
But a heart needs blood to love

You know it's true, oh Lord
You got more ghosts than a graveyard
That's you, oh Lord
There's more love in a dead man's arms

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)

Oh Lord, you got more bones than a graveyard
It's true, oh Lord
There's more love in a dead man's arms

Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)
Oh, oh, there's more love in a dead man's arms
Oh, oh, there's more love in a dead man's arms
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Chorus:
It's you, oh Lord
You got more bones than a graveyard
It's you, oh Lord
There's more love in a dead man's arms

(Dead man's arms, dead man's arms)
There's more love in a dead man's arms
(Dead Man's Arms, dead man's arms)
Oh Lord, there's more love in a dead man's arms
