Into My Arms Chords & Tabs
Into My Arms
------------
by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
(The Boatman's Call album)
Intro: G C F...F^F C...C^C
^ - means hammer on 2nd string (open note "b">"c" on 1st fret)
That's the way how I do it:

Note: F^-(little pause)-F

You can do your own variations on these chords.
G5 C/G F (F^F) C (C^C)
I don't believe in an interventionist God
G5 C/G F (F^F) C (C^C)
But I know, darling, that you do
G5 C/G F (F^F) C (C^C)
But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
G5 C/G F C (C^C)
Not to intervene when it came to you
C F
Not to touch a hair on your head
Dm
To leave you as you are
G
And if He felt He had to direct you
Em G
Then direct you into my arms
Well, there are two ways for playing chorus:1) with hammers, pulls and slides; 2) without it.
First way:
Dm C/G
