LYRICS

I got the call to day; I (A)did n’t want to hear

but I (G)knew that it would come.

An old, true friend of ours was (A)talk in’ on the phone, she said you (G)found some one.

And I (Asus)thought of all the bad luck and the strug gles we went through, and how (G)I lost me

and you lost you.

What are these voic es out side love’s o pen door, make us (G)throw off our con tent ment and (Asus)beg for some thing (A)more?

I’m learn ing to live with out you now,

but I (G)miss you some times.

The more I know,

the (Bm7)less I un der stand; all the (G)things I thought I knew, I’m (Asus)learn ing a (A)gain.

I’ve been try in’ to get down

to the heart of the mat ter but my (D)will gets weak

and my thoughts seem to scat ter But I think it’s a (D)bout for give ness,

for give ness, (G)e ven if, e ven if (Asus)you don’t love me an y more.

Ah, these I got the call to day; I (A)did n’t want to hear

but I (G)knew that it would come.

An old, true friend of ours was (A)talk in’ on the phone, she said you (G)found some one.

And I (Asus)thought of all the bad luck and the strug gles we went through, and how (G)I lost me

and you lost you.

What are these voic es out side love’s o pen door, make us (G)throw off our con tent ment and (Asus)beg for some thing (A)more?

I’m learn ing to live with out you now,

but I (G)miss you some times.

The more I know,

the (Bm7)less I un der stand; all the (G)things I thought I knew, I’m (Asus)learn ing a (A)gain.

I’ve been try in’ to get down

to the heart of the mat ter but my (D)will gets weak

Ah, these (Asus)you don’t love me an y more.

There are (C)peo ple in your life

who’ve come and gone,

You bet ter put it all be hind you;

’cause life goes on.

You keep (Asus)car ry in’ that an ger; it ’ll eat you up in side, ba by.

(Asus)you don’t (A)love me.

I’ve been try in’ to get down

to the heart of the mat ter be cause the (D)flesh will get weak

and the ash es will scat ter.

So, I’m think in’ a (A)bout for give ness,
