Bon Jovi
IN THESE ARMS (Acoustic Version)
1996


Tabbed By: Víctor Marín
From: Venezuela

************************************************************************************
This is an oldy song, but it's a classic for Bon Jovi's lovers like my brothers. It's very easy so anyone can play it, recommended for an acoustic guitar with steel strings.

I heard this one from a live concert in Yokahama in 1996, but if you prefer the original version you can use this tab with and play the song with a capo on the 3rd fret, it will sound just like the record, I'm pretty sure these are the right chords. Any comments are welcomed, you know what 2 do.

Remember, it's all my work and excuse me for my english =P.

[Verse 1]: Fill1

You want commitment 
Take a look into these eyes 
They burn with a fire, just for you now 
Until the end of time 


                Bm
I would do anything 
                       G
I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die
                A
To have you in these arms tonight 


[Intro] x1 

[Verse2]: Fill 1

Baby I want you like the roses 
Want the rain 
You know I need you 
Just like a poet needs the pain 

                  Bm
I would give anything
                      G 
My blood my love my life 
                   A
If you were in these arms 


[Chorus]:

D
I'd hold you 
A
I'd need you
Bm            G                 D
I'd get down on my knees for you
Bm                        A
And make everything alright 
           G
If you were in these arms 
D
I'd love you 
A
I'd please you 
Bm             G                  D
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you 
Bm                              A
And love you till the end of time
             G              Fill 1
If you were in these arms tonight 


[Verse 3]: Fill

We stared at the sun 
And we made a promise 
A promise this world would never blind us 

Bm
These are my words 
                   G
Our words were our songs 
                       Bm
Our songs are our prayers

These prayers keep me strong 
                  G
And I still believe 
               A
If you were in these arms 


[Chorus]

[Bridge]

A2
Your clothes are still scatteder 
All over our room 
G
This old place still smells like 
Your cheap perfume 
A2
Everything here reminds me of you 
G
And there's nothing that I 
Wouldn't doooooooooo

D, A, Bm, G, D, Bm, A, G


A2
And these were our words 
A2                   A2
They keep me strong  baaaaaaaaaaaaaby...
