Standard (EADGBE)

Far across the ocean wide - So the story's often told

There's a land of peace and quiet - Where time is still and love is bold

If we tread that holy ground - Each instant remains new

The closest yet that I have found - Is in the arms of only you

Holding you close to me - Kissing me the way you do

Yeah tonight I long to be - In the arms of only you - In the arms of only you

Since I first beheld your face - Calmly regarding me

You have never left that place - Deep inside the heart of me

You are with me all day long - No matter what I do

And I know where I belong - In the arms of only you

Holding you close to me - Kissing me the way you do

Yeah tonight I long to be - In the arms of only you - In the arms of only you

- - - - - - - -

Like a play without a script - Like a song without a tune

 Like a day without the sun - I am nothing without you

So now as the sun goes down - And the work's no longer new

My body longs to rest awhile - In the arms of only you

Holding you close to me - Kissing me the way you do

Yeah tonight I long to be - In the arms of only you

Holding you close to me - Kissing me the way you do

Yeah tonight I long to be - In the arms of only you

In the arms of only you - In the arms of o-on-n-ly you
