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:
     
        G5 C/GF           F^ F      F*F   C/G         C^ C        G5  C/G  F...
     e|-3--0--1--1-1--1-1-0--1--1-1-0-1---0--0-0--0-0-0--0--0-0-|
     B|-3--1--1--1-1--1-1-0--1--1-1-0-1---1--1-1--1-1-0--1--1-1-|
     G|-0--0--2--2-2--2-2-2--2--2-2-2-2---0--0-0--0-0-0--0--0-0-|
     D|-0--2--3--3-3--2-3-3--3--3-3-3-3---2--2-2--2-2-2--2--2-2-|
     A|-2--3--3--3-3--3-3-3--3--3-3-3-3---3--3-3--3-3-3--3--3-3-|
     E|-3--3--1--1-1--1-1(0)-1--1-1(0)1---3--3-3--3-3-3--3--3-3-|
      
      F*-without hammer
      Note: F^-(little pause)-F
            C^-(little pause)-C
      
      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
    e|-3^1-0^1-1--1-1--1-1-0^^1--1-1-|-1^0-----0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|
    B|---------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|-----3/5-1--1-1--1-1-0^^1--1-1-|
    G|---------2--2-2--2-2-2-----2-2-|---------0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|
    D|---------0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|---------2--2-2--2-2-2-----2-2-|
    A|--------(0)(0-0)(0-0-0)---(0-0)|---------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|
    E|-------------------------------|---------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|
    
    Second way:
               Dm                              C/G
       In to my-y arms       Oh,Lord      In to my-y arms       Oh,Lord
    e|-3--1--0--1-1--1-1--1-1-0^^1--1-1-|-1--0-----0-0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|
    B|------------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|-------3----1--1-1--1-1-0^^1--1-1-|
    G|------------2--2-2--2-2-2-----2-2-|------------0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|
    D|------------0--0-0--0-0-0-----0-0-|------------2--2-2--2-2-2-----2-2-|
    A|-----------(0)(0-0)(0-0-0)---(0-0)|------------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|
    E|----------------------------------|------------3--3-3--3-3-3-----3-3-|
