| I got the call today that I | didn’t wanna hear |
| D |
| But I | knew that it would come |
| A | E |
| Old true friend of ours was | talking on the phone |
| D |
| She said you | found someone |
| E |
| And I | thought of all the bad luck |
And the struggles we went through
| D |
| And how | I lost me and you lost you |
| E |
| What are these voices outside love’s open door |
| D |
| Make us | throw off our contentment |
| E |
| And | beg for something more? |
| A | Bm7 | A/C# |
| But I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| D |
| But I | miss you sometimes |
| A/E | F#m |
| And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D | Esus4 | E |
| All the | things I thought I knew I’m | learning aga | in |
| A |
| I’ve been trying to get down |
| Bm7 |
| To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
| But my | will gets weak |
| D |
| And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
| But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
| D | Esus4 | E | A |
| Even if, even if | you don’t | love me any | more |

| All these | times are so uncertain |
| E |
| There’s a | yearning undefined |
| D |
| And | people filled with rage |
| A |
| We all | need a little tenderness |
| E | D |
| How can love survive in | such a graceless age? |
| E |
| Ah the | trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness |
| D | D |
| They’re the | very things we | kill, I guess |
| E |
| Our | pride and competition |
Can not fill these empty arms
| D |
| And the | work I put between us |
| Esus4 | E |
| You know it | doesn’t keep me | warm |
| A | Bm7 | A/C# |
| I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| A/E | F#m |
| And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D |
| All the | things I thought I’d figured out |
| Esus4 | E |
| I | have to learn | again |
| A |
| I’ve been trying to get down |
| Bm7 |
| To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
| But | everything changes |
| D |
| And my friends seem to scatter |
| A/E |
| But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
| D | Esus4 | E | A |
| Even if, even if, | you don’t | love me any | more |
| G | D/F# |
| There are | people in your life, | who’ve come and gone |
| Em | D/F# |
| They | let you down, you know they | hurt your pride |
| G | D/F# |
| You better put it all behind you baby, ‘cause | life goes on |
| E |
| You keep | carrying that anger, it will eat you up inside, baby |
| A |
| I’ve been trying to get down |
| Bm7 |
| To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
| But my | will gets weak |
| D |
| And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
| But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
| D | Esus4 |
| Even if, even if | you don’t love me |
| A |
| I’ve been trying to get down |
| Bm7 |
| To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
| Because the | flesh will get weak |
| D |
| And the ashes will scatter |
| A/E |
| So I’m thinkin’ about | forgiveness |
| D | Esus4 | A |
| Even if, even if | you don’t love me any | more |
