Intro Riff x 4

Verse 1:
DD Piano Chord 

I got the call today
AA Piano Chord 

And I didn't want to hear
GG Piano Chord 

But I knew that it would come
DD Piano Chord 

An old true friend of ours
AA Piano Chord 

Was talking on the phone
GG Piano Chord 

She said you'd found someone

AA Piano Chord 

And I thought of all the bad luck
A7A7 Piano Chord 

And the struggles we went through
GG Piano Chord 

How I lost me, and you lost you
AA Piano Chord 

What are all these voices
A7A7 Piano Chord 

Outside love's open door
GG Piano Chord 

Make us throw off our contentment
AA Piano Chord 

And beg for something more

Chorus:
DD Piano Chord 
               A/EA/E Piano Chord 
              Bm/F#Bm/F# Piano Chord 

I'm learning to live without you now
GG Piano Chord 

But I miss you sometimes
DD Piano Chord 
                    BmBm Piano Chord 

The more I know, the less I understand
GG Piano Chord 

All the things I thought I knew
AA Piano Chord 

I'm learning again

DD Piano Chord 

I've been trying to get down
A/EA/E Piano Chord 

To the heart of the matter
Bm/F#Bm/F# Piano Chord 

But my will gets weak
GG Piano Chord 

And my thoughts seem to scatter
DD Piano Chord 

But I think it's about
BmBm Piano Chord 

Forgiveness, Forgiveness
GG Piano Chord 
                AA Piano Chord 

Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore

Intro Riff X2

(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:
CC Piano Chord 

There are people in your life
G/BG/B Piano Chord 

Who've come and gone
AmAm Piano Chord 

They let you down
GG Piano Chord 

You know they hurt your pride
CC Piano Chord 

You better put it all behind you babe
G/BG/B Piano Chord 

'Cuz life goes on
AA Piano Chord 

You 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)
