Intro Riff x 4 
 
Verse 1: 
D 
I got the call today 
      A 
And I didn't want to hear 
      G 
But I knew that it would come 
D  
An old true friend of ours 
    A 
Was talking on the phone 
               G 
She said you'd found someone 
 
      A 
And I thought of all the bad luck 
        A7 
And the struggles we went through 
    G 
How I lost me, and you lost you 
A 
What are all these voices 
   A7 
Outside love's open door 
        G 
Make us throw off our contentment 
    A 
And beg for something more 

Chorus: 
D               A/E              Bm/F# 
I'm learning to live without you now 
      G 
But I miss you sometimes 
D                    Bm 
The more I know, the less I understand 
        G 
All the things I thought I knew 
    A 
I'm learning again 
 
D 
I've been trying to get down 
A/E 
To the heart of the matter 
       Bm/F# 
But my will gets weak 
G 
And my thoughts seem to scatter 
                 D 
But I think it's about 
             Bm 
Forgiveness, Forgiveness 
G                A 
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore 
 
Intro Riff X2 
 
(same pattern as first verse): 
Ah these times are so uncertain 
There's a yearning undefined 
People filled with rage 
We all need a little tenderness 
How can love survive 
In such a graceless age 

Oh the trust and self-assurance 

That lead to happiness 
They're the very things we kill I guess 
Oh pride and competition 
Cannot fill these empty arms 
And the work I put between us 
You know it doesn't keep me warm 
 
Chorus: 
I'm learning to live without you now 
But I miss you baby 
The more I know, the less I understand 
All the things I thought I figured out 
I have to learn again 
 
I've been trying to get down 
To the heart of the matter 
But everything changesgets weak 
And my friends seem to scatter 
But I think it's about 
Forgiveness, Forgiveness 
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore 
 
(instead of riff 1, play 2 bars of D) 
 
Bridge: 
          C 
There are people in your life 
G/B 
Who've come and gone 
     Am 
They let you down 
              G 
You know they hurt your pride 
C 
You better put it all behind you babe 
     G/B 
'Cuz life goes on 
         A 
You keep carrying that anger 
 
It'll eat you up inside baby 

Chorus: 
I've been trying to get down 
To the heart of the matter 
But my will gets weak 
And my thoughts seem to scatter 
But I think it's about 
Forgiveness, Forgiveness 
Even if, Even if you don't love me  
 
I've been trying to get down 
To the heart of the matter 
Because the flesh will get weak 
And the ashes will scatter 
But I think it's about 
Forgiveness, Forgiveness 
Even if, Even if you don't love me

                                   Bm
No one can hold the light to your misery 
 D   - C          G
You're the number one
Em         Bm    D -  C     G
Being hard done, hard done by
           Em           Bm         D - C
You'll get by with your smile, wicked smile
      G            Em             Bm
And laughing at the misfortune of others 
     D - C         G                 Em
You gotta get your kicks kicking the pricks
Bm                  D - C
Laughing as they pick up sticks
G          Em           Bm
And old ladies walks on by
  D  -    C      Am
Trip up as they cry

             D
With all the battering it's taken
Bm                       Em
I'm surprised it's still ticking
Am                 D
Yeah, with all the battering it's taken

I'm surprised it is still ticking

          Em              Am       B
Let's get straight to the heart of matter
       Em         Am         B
Why so glum? It's all on the platter
     Em              Am    B           Em     Am    B
So what's the matter, what's the matter today?

G       Em              Bm
I am no stranger to the cause
  D        -   C   G

                Em
Please torch my flesh
               Bm           D  -      C   G
And leave gray holes in the meaning of my life
          Em        Bm
But I get by, I get by
           D    - C      G
Just this crooked little smile
           Em             Bm            D - C
You'll get by, you'll get by, you'll get by

Am           D
With all the battering it's taken

 G           Em           Bm
So hold the lights to my misery 
          D -     C     G
But don't send it up in flames
          Em            Bm
It's only I who take the blame
    D   C     G
But try me anyway
               Em                 Bm
And you'll get by, and you'll get by

And you'll get by, and you'll get by 
          D   -  C
With your wicked little…
