D D9 Dsus4 (x2) 

D                                              A7                      G 
I got the call today, that I didn't wanna hear but I knew that it would come 
D                           A7                                                G 
An old, true friend of ours was talkin on the phone, she said she'd found someone 
A7 
And I thought of all the bad luck, and the struggles we went through 
G 
How I'd lost me, and you'd lost you 
A7 
What are these voices outside life's open doors 
G                        A7 
Make us go out for containers and beg for something more 
D                        Bm                          A7           G 
I'm learning to live without you now and I miss ya sometimes 
D                       Bm 
And the more I know, the less I understand 
              G                        A7 
And all the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again 


D                              Bm 
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter 
           G                        A7 
When my week gets weak and my thoughts have been scattered 
                 D               Bm 
But I think its about Forgiveness, Forgiveness 
        G                       A7 
Even if, Even if you don't love me any more

D D9 Dsus4 

                 D                                               A7                                                        G 
And these times are so uncertain, there's a yearning undefined, and people filled with rage 
            D                                 A7                  G 
We all need a little tenderness, how can love survive, in such a placeless age? 
A7 
The trust and self assurance that lead to happiness 
G 
All the silly things we kill, I guess 
A7 
No pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms 
         G                                A7 
And the work I've put between us, you know it doesn't keep me warm 
D                     Bm                  A7               G 
I'm learning to live without you now, and I miss ya baby 
D                                     Bm 
And the more I know, the less I understand 
           G                                                A7 
All the things I thought I'd figured out, I have to learn again 

Repeat Chorus 
D G D                    C                             B/C 
      But if there's people in your life who's come and gone 
         A                                          B/C 
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride 
                      C                                        B/C 
You'd better put it all behind you baby, cuz life goes on 
                 A 
And you canned up all that anger, it'll eat you up inside 

Repeat Chorus 2x 
D              Bm               G                A7               D               Bm 
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness 
G          A7                                  D  D D9 Dsus4 D D9 D D9 Dsus4 
Even if you dont love me anymore
