[Verse 1]
DI got the call today
And I Asus4didn't want to hear
But I Gknew that it would come
DAn old true friend of ours
Was Asus4talking on the phone
She said you'd Gfound someone
And I Asus4thought of all the bad luck
And the Em7/Astruggles we went through
How GI lost me, and you lost you
Asus4What if all these voices
OutEm7/Aside love's open door
Make us Gthrow off our contentment
And Asus4beg for something more
[Chorus]
D I've been learning to Em7live without youD/F# now
But I Gmiss you sometimes
Asus4The more I know, the G/Bless I understand
All the Gthings I thought I knew
I'm Asus4learning them again
DI've been trying to get down
Em7To the heart of the matter
But my D/F#will gets weak
GAnd my thoughts seem to scatter
But I Asus4think it's about
Forgiveness, G/BForgiveness
GEven if, Even if Asus4you don't love me anymore
D A7sus4
[Verse]
These Dtimes are so uncertain
There's a Asus4yearning undefined and
GPeople filled with rage
DWe all need a little tenderness
Asus4How can love survive
In Gsuch a graceless age
And the Asus4trust and self-assurance
That Em7/Alead to happiness
Are the Gvery things we kill I guess
Asus4Pride and competition
Cannot Em7/Afill these empty arms
And the Gwall we put between us
You know it Asus4doesn't keep me warm
[Chorus]
D I've been learning to Em7live without youD/F# now
But I Gmiss you sometimes
Asus4The more I know, the G/Bless I understand
All the Gthings I thought I'd figured out
I Asus4have to learn again
DI've been trying to get down
Em7To the heart of the matter
But my D/F#will gets weak
GAnd my thoughts seem to scatter
But I Asus4think it's about
Forgiveness, G/BForgiveness
GEven if, Even if Asus4you don't love me anymore
D
[Bridge]
There are Cadd9people in your life
G/BWho've come and gone
They Asus4let you down
You know they G/Bhurt your pride
Cadd9You better put it all behind you
'Cuz G/Blife goes on
You keep Asus4carrying that anger
It'll A7sus4eat you up inside
[Chorus]
D I've been learning to Em7live without you D/F#now
But I Gmiss you baby
Asus4The more I know, the G/Bless I understand
All the Gthings I thought I knew
I'm Asus4learning again
DI've been trying to get down
Em7To the heart of the matter
But my D/F#will gets weak
GAnd my thoughts seem to scatter
But I Asus4think it's about
Forgiveness, G/BForgiveness
GEven if, Even if Asus4you don't love me anymore
