A And I thought of all the bad luck, A7 And struggles we went through G How I lost me and you lost you A A7 What are these voices outside loves open door G Make us throw of our contentment A And beg for something more? D G Bm I’m learning to live without you now G But I miss you sometimes D Bm And the more I know, less I understand G A All the things I thought I knew, I’m learning again D I’ve been trying to get down Bm To the heart of the matter G But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
D So I think it’s about forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A D Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore

And my thoughts seem to scatter
D So I think it’s about forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A D Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore D I’ve been trying to get down Bm To the heart of the matter G But my will gets weak
And my ashes seem to scatter
D So I think it’s about forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A D Even if, even if you don’t love me… Forgiveness Bm Forgiveness - baby D Forgiveness Bm Forgiveness D Forgiveness G A D Even if, even if, you don’t love me anymore
