Dm A7

[Verse 1]
                       Dm
How many times did you call me
                  Am
And I knew it was late
            Dm
I left everybody
                    Am
But I never went straight
                      F
I don't claim to be guilty
               Dm
But I do understand

[Refrain]
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand

A7

[Verse 2]
                        Dm
Now my heart's like a blister
                  Am
From doing what I do
                   Dm
If the moon has a sister
               Am
It's got to be you
                         F
I'm going to miss you forever
                         Dm
Though it's not what I planned

[Refrain]
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand

A7

[Verse 3]
                       Dm
Now the deal has been dirty
              Am
Since dirty began
                   Dm
I'm not asking for mercy
             Am
Not from the man
                        F
You just don't ask for mercy
                            Dm
While you're still on the stand

[Refrain]
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand

[Interlude]
Dm Am Dm Am

[Bridge]
                     F
I don't claim to be guilty
               Dm
Guilty's too grand

[Refrain]
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand

A7

[Verse 4]
                 Dm
That's all I can say, baby
                 Am
That's all I can say
              Dm
It wasn't for nothing
                  Am
That they put me away
               F
I fell with my angel
                     Dm
Down the chain of command

[Refrain]
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
          Bb               A              Dm
There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
