Intro
D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus4 (repeat 4x)

Verse 1
D            A
I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear
   G
But I knew that it would come
D               A
An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
       G
She said you found someone
   A
And I thought of all the bad luck,

And the struggles we went through
  G
How I lost me and you lost you
A
What are these voices outside love's open door
    G
Make us throw off our contentment
  Asus4       A
And beg for something more?

Chorus 1
D           Em7       D/F#
I've been learning to live without you now
   G
But I miss you sometimes
D          Bm
The more I know, the less I understand
    G              Asus4   A
All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again
D              Em7
I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter
    D/F#
But my will gets weak
G
And my thoughts seem to scatter
           D
But I think it's a - bout forgiveness
Bm
Forgiveness
G        A             D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus4 (repeat 2x)
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

Verse 2
   D
These times are so uncertain
     A
There's a yearning undefined
  G
And people filled with rage
D
We all need a little tenderness
A            G
How can love survive in such a graceless age
A
And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
G
They're the very things we kill, I guess
A
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
    G
And the work I put between us
      Asus4      A
You know it doesn't keep me warm

Chorus 2
D        Em7       D/F#
I'm learning to live without you now
   G
But I miss you, baby
D                   Bm
The more I know, the less I understand
    G                 Asus4     A
All the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again
D              Em7
I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter
D/F#
But everything changes
G
And my friends seem to scatter
           D
But I think it's a - bout forgiveness
Bm
Forgiveness
G        A             D G D
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

Bridge
     C             G
There are people in your life who've come and gone
   Am                G/B
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride
  C                  G
You better put it all behind you, baby; ‘cause life goes on
A
You keep carryin' that anger, it'll eat you up inside, baby

Chorus 3
D               Em7
I’ve been tryin’ to get down, to the heart of the matter
D/F#
But my will gets weak
G
And my thoughts seem to scatter
           D
But I think it's a - bout forgiveness
Bm
Forgiveness
G        A
Even if, even if you don't love me

Final Chorus
D              Em7
I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter
D/F#
Because the flesh will get weak
G
And the ashes will scatter
           D
So, I'm thinkin' a - bout forgiveness
Bm
Forgiveness
G        A
Even if, even if you don't love me
 D      Em7     D/F#
(Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness,
G      D      Bm
forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness)
G    A
Even if you don't love me anymore

D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus4 (repeat 2x)
D


This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
