[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em Em
A million dark alleys you can hide in
Em Am
Dig a tunnel to the center of the earth
C C
Convinced you've got nobody to confide in
G D
Got you questioning the sum of what you're worth
Em Em
People label you the black sheep of the family
Em C
Come collect upon your prodigal reward
[Chorus]
C
'Cause you can never outrun
G
Or go beyond the reaches
G Em
Of the long arm of the Lord
[Instrumental]
|Em |Em |Am |Em |Em |Em |Am D|
[Verse 2]
Em Em
And I've been ashamed, I've been humbled and forgiven
Em Am
I've been chastened by my Father's loving hand
C C
But still, it comes and goes with my evil
C D
It seems to constitute the nature of a man
Em Em
But forgiveness is as close as my confession
Em C
And my sin amputated by His sword
[Chorus]
C
'Cause I can never outrun
G Em
Or go beyond the reaches
C Em
Of the long arm of the Lord
[Instrumental]
|Em |Em |Am Em |
[Verse 3]
C C
If He gave to me all that I deserve
Em Em
This could be my final breath
C
But with compassion in His eyes
C
He's drawing me home
Am D Em Em D
Into His arms, into His tender arms of re--------st
Em
(Into the arms of the lord)
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
Am Em Em
There are pagans at the corners of creation
Em Am
Making light of the salvation that we know
C C
And with a small, narrow mind I give them over
C D
To the passion of the Godless seed they sow
Em Em
But, in truth, we have just as much potential
Em C
To be Godly and perfected by the Word
[Chorus]
C
Though cause no one in this world
G Em
Can slip beyond the reaches
C Em
Of the long arm , of the Lord
[Chorus]
C
Yeah well no one in this world
G Em
Can slip beyond the reaches
C D Em Em Em D Em D
Of the long arm of the Lo----------or---rd
[Outro]

(Reaches the long arnm of the lord)
Em
Yeah yeah I know
Am Em
No one in this world
