Mariah Carey- Open Arms chords
Start Jamming...
[Cm] Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your [Gm]
heartbeat with [Eb]
mine
Softly you whisper, [Bb] you're so [Ab] sincere
[Cm] How could [Gm] our love be [Ab] so blind?
[Fm] We sailed on together, [Cm] we drifted [Bb] apart
[Eb]
And here [Bb] you are by [Ab] my [Bb] side
[Ab]
So now [Eb]
I look to you [Gm] with a whole [Ab]
new thing
[Abm]
Believe a way, [Eb]
so here I am
[Gm] With a whole new [Ab]
thing
[Db] I'm watching love fade to me [Eb] Open eyes
[Bb] Arms, [Ab] [Cm]
arms [Gm] Yeah
[Ab]
[Eb] [Ab] [Eb] Living without [Bb] you Living
[Ab] [Cm]
This [Gm] empty house seems [Ab]
so cold
[Eb]
Wanting to hold you, [Bb]
[Ab] [Cm]
[Gm] I wanted [Ab]
you more
[Fm] But now that you've come back, [Cm] turned night into day
[Bb] [Eb] I [Bb] need you [Ab] to [Bb] stay
[Ab]
So now [Eb] I look to you [Gm] with a whole [Ab] new thing
Believe [Db]
a way, [Abm] so [Eb]

With a whole new [Ab]
thing
