[Verse 1]
[G]I got the call today, I did[D]n't wanna hear
But I [C]knew that it would come
[G]An old true friend of ours
was [D]talkin' on the phone
She said you [C]found someone

[Pre-chorus 1]
And I [D]thought of all the bad luck,
And the struggles we went through
And how [C]I lost me and you lost you
[D]What are these voices
outside love's open door
Make us [C]throw off our contentment
And [D]beg for something more?

[Chorus 1]
[G]I'm learning to liv[Am]e without you now[G]
But I [C]miss you sometimes
[D]The more I know, the les[Em]s I understand
All the [C]things I thought I knew,
I'm [D]learning again
[G]I've been trying to get down
[Am]to the Heart of the Matter
But my [G]will gets weak
[C]And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's a[D]bout forgiveness
[Em]Forgiveness
[C]Even if, even if [D]you don't love me anymore

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][D]

[Verse 2]
Oh these [G]times are so uncertain
There's a [D]yearning undefined
And [C]people filled with rage
We all [G]need a little tenderness
[D]How can love survive
in [C]such a graceless age

[Pre-chorus 2]
The [D]trust and self-assurance
that lead to happiness
They're the [C]very things we kill, I guess
[D]Pride and competition
cannot fill these empty arms
And the [C]work I put between us,
You know it [D]doesn't keep me warm

[Chorus 2]
[G]I'm learning to liv[Am]e without you now[G]
But I [C]miss you, baby
[D]The more I know, the les[Em]s I understand
All the [C]things I thought I figured out,
I [D]have to learn again
[G]I've been trying to get down
[Am]to the Heart of the Matter
[G]But everything changes
[C]And my friends seem to scatter
But I think it's a[D]bout forgiveness
[Em]Forgiveness
[C]Even if, even if [D]you don't love me anymore
[G][G]

[Bridge 1]
There are [F]people in your life
[C]who've come and gone
They [Dm]let you down,
you know they [C]hurt your pride
[F]You better put it all behind you, baby,
[C]'cause life goes on
You keep [D]carrying that anger,

[Chorus 3]
it'll eat you up inside, baby
[G]I've been trying to get down
[Am]to the Heart of the Matter
But my [G]will gets weak
[C]And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's a[D]bout forgiveness
[Em]Forgiveness
[C]Even if, even if [D]you don't love me
[G]I've been trying to get down
[Am]to the Heart of the Matter
Because the [G]flesh will get weak
[C]And the ashes will scatter
So I'm thinking a[D]bout forgiveness
[Em]Forgiveness
[C]Even if, even if [D]you don't love me

[Outro 1]
[G]Forgiveness
[Am]Forgiveness (Baby)
[G]Forgiveness
[C]Forgiveness
[D]Forgiveness
[Em]Forgiveness
[C]Even if you[D] don't love me anymore
[Repeat and Fade]
