Empty arms is actually a simple blues scheme in B
SRV uses a lot of sixes and nines.
from vertical to vertical is one bar, so it shouldn't be a puzzle!

......run me ragged baby it's your own fault you're on your own
you have run me ragged darling it's your own fault you're on your own
you didnt'nt want me no way, baby 'till your other man was gone

you've been tryin' to get me back baby with all your tricks and charme
you've been tryin' to get me back baby with all your tricks and charme
but when all your games are over you'll be left with empty ....
