This are the exact chords I use for playing this song.
Yes I realized in the word "find" I put like 6 i's, but that's because she holds
that note and to fit the chord change in there.
I personally love this song and I hope this helps =)
[[P.S. There's no intro because I think performing this song with just guitar and
vocals it sounds better without an intro]]
[Verse 1]
Dm7 F
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
C/G G
For the break that would make it okay
Dm7 F
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
C/G G
And it's hard at the end of the day
Dm7 F
I need some distraction, oh, beautiful release
C/G G
Memories seep from my veins
Dm7 F
Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe
C/G G
I'll find some peace tonight
[Chorus]
C/G Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here
F C/G G
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
C/G Em
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sarah_mclachlan/angel_crd_ver_7.html ]
F C/G G C/G
You're in the arms of the angel, may you fiiiiiind some comfort here.
[Verse 2]
Dm7 F
So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
C/G G
There's vultures and thieves at your back
Dm7 F
The storm keeps on twistin', you keep on buildin' the lies
C/G G
That you make up for all that you lack.
Dm7 F
It don't make no difference, escapin' one last time
C/G G
It's easier to believe
Dm7 F
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
C/G G
That brings me to my knees.
[Chorus]
C/G Em
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here
F C/G G
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
C/G Em
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
F C/G G C/G
You're in the arms of the angel, may you fiiiiiind some comfort here.
[Repeat last line]
F C/B G F
You're in the arms of the angel, may you fiiiiiind some comfort hereeeee.
C/G - F - C/G - F
End on C/G
