Intro: D5 D5 D5 D5

D5                                A5
I got the call today and I didn't want to hear
       G5
But I knew that it would come
 D5                                  A5
An old true friend of ours was talking on the phone
                G5
She said you?d found someone


       A5                                  A5 
And I thought of all the bad luck and the struggles we went through
    G5
How I lost me, and you lost you
A5                                   A5
What are all these voices outside love's open door?
        G5                              A5
Make us throw off our contentment and beg for something more

Chorus


 D5                 A5                    B5              G5
I'm learning to live without you now, but I miss you sometimes
 D5                          B5
The more I know, the less I understand
          G5                                      A5
All the things I thought I knew I'm  learning again
D5                                        D5
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
         D5                   G5
But my    will gets weak and my thoughts seem to scatter
                      D5                     B5
But I think it's about forgiveness, forgiveness
G5                    A5
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore


              D5                                        A5 
Ah these times are so uncertain, there's a yearning undefined
G5
People filled with rage
D5                                            A5                                G5 
We all need a little tenderness How can love survive in such a graceless age?
           A5                  A5                   A5
Oh the trust and self-assurance that leads to happiness
                  G5
They're the very things we kill, I guess
  

   A5                       A5              A5  
Oh pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
             G5                                                A5
And the work I put between us you know it doesn't keep me warm

Chorus


D5                    D5                  D5        G5
I'm learning to live without you now, but I miss you baby
D5                              B5 
The more I know, the less I understand
           G5                                         A5
All the things I thought I figured out I have to learn again
D5                                        D5
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
D5                                  G5
But everything changes and my friends seem to scatter
                     D5                             B5
But I think it's about forgiveness, forgiveness
G5                     A5       D5  D5  D5 D5 D5
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

Bridge


      C5                               G5
There are people in your life who've come and gone
        A5                                      G5 
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride
C5                                                         G5
You better put it all behind you babe cuz life goes on
               A5
You keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside baby

Chorus


D5                                        D5
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
D5                                     G5 
But my will gets weak and my thoughts seem to scatter
                      D5                              B5
But I think it's about forgiveness, forgiveness
G5                     A5
Even if, even if you don't love me


D5                                       D5 
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
                   D5                           G5
Because the flesh will get weak and the ashes will scatter


                      D5                         B5
But I think it's about forgiveness, forgiveness
G5                     A5
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
