           G (320003@1)                       D (xx0232@1)      
  Sweet forgiveness, that's what you give to me.

           G (320003@1)            G7 (320001@1) When you hold me close,
 
                           C (x32010@1)     Cm (x3101x@1) And you say: "That's all over."

               G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)   Em (022000@1) You don't go looking back,
  
      D (xx0232@1)            C (x32010@1)      Em7        Am7 (x02010@1)    G (320003@1) You don't hold the cards to the stack.

             D7 (xx0212@1) 'Cause you mean what you say.




(Verse 2)

           G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)  Sweet forgiveness, you help me see.

          G (320003@1)          G7 (320001@1) I'm not near as bad,

                   C (x32010@1)         Cm (x3101x@1) As I sometimes appear to be.

           G (320003@1)       D (xx0232@1)     Em (022000@1) When you hold me   close,

          D (xx0232@1)            C (x32010@1)     Em7   Am7 (x02010@1)    
  And you say: "That's all over,

       D7 (xx0212@1)    G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)  C (x32010@1)  G (320003@1)      G7 (320001@1) "And I still love you."




(Chorus)

             C (x32010@1) There's no way that I could make up,

            G (320003@1)           G7 (320001@1) For those angry words I said.

  C (x32010@1)                  Em (022000@1) Sometimes it gets to hurting,

          Am (x02210@1)            D7 (xx0212@1) And the pain goes to my head.




(Verse 4) 

           G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1) Sweet forgiveness, dear God above.

        G (320003@1)           G7 (320001@1)  I say    we all deserve,

             C (x32010@1)               Cm (x3101x@1) A taste of that kind of love.

                 G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)      Em (022000@1) Someone who'll   hold onto our hand,

      D (xx0232@1)         C (x32010@1)    Em7    Am7 (x02010@1) And whisper: "I under--stand,

      D7 (xx0212@1)    G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1) C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) And I still love you."
