Intro Riff x 4
Verse 1:
DI got the call today
And I didn't want to hear
GBut I knew that it would come
DAn old true friend of ours
Was talking on the phone
GShe said you'd found someone
A
And I thought of all the bad luck
A7And the struggles we went through
How I lost me, and you lost you
AWhat are all these voices
A7Outside love's open door
Make us throw off our contentment
AAnd beg for something more
I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
D BmThe more I know, the less I understand
GAll the things I thought I knew
I'm learning again
I've been trying to get down
A/ETo the heart of the matter
Bm/F#But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
DBut I think it's about
BmForgiveness, Forgiveness
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore
(same pattern as first verse):
Ah these times are so uncertain
There's a yearning undefined
People filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive
In such a graceless age
Oh the trust and self-assurance
That lead to happiness
They're the very things we kill I guess
Oh pride and competition
Cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I put between us
You know it doesn't keep me warm
Chorus
I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you baby
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I figured out
I have to learn again
I've been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
But everything changesgets weak
And my friends seem to scatter
But I think it's about
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore
(instead of riff 1, play 2 bars of D)
Bridge:
CThere are people in your life
G/BWho've come and gone
They let you down
GYou know they hurt your pride
CYou better put it all behind you babe
'Cuz life goes on
AYou keep carrying that anger
It'll eat you up inside baby
Chorus
I've been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Even if, Even if you don't love me
I've been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
But I think it's about
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Even if, Even if you don't love me
(follow pattern of chorus and fade out)
