[Bb]
With your arm around me, how can I [F] complain?
With your arm around me, I know [Bb] I'm a lucky man.
With your arm around me, honey, I'm taller than a [Eb] tree.
So all [F] I can say is [Eb] keep those arms up around me.
Well, I woke up this morning,
[Bb] oh, I had [F] an aching head.
The pain was so great, I [Bb] almost fell out of bed.
And you put your arm around me, then you kissed me [Eb] three times.
And in [F] a matter of seconds, I never felt [Bb] so fine.
[Eb] Oh, no.
Oh, yes, I [Bb] did.
[F] With your arm [Bb] around me, I can't feel [F] no, no, no, no pain.
With your arm around me, I know [Bb] I'm the world's strongest man.
With your arm around me, if I was blind, I know [Eb] that I could see.
All [Bb] I can say is keep those loving arms around me.
[Eb]
Whoa, now.
Whoa, [Bb] now.
