[Verse 1]
D
I got the call today
      Asus4
And I didn't want to hear
      G
But I knew that it would come
D
An old true friend of ours
    Asus4
Was talking on the phone
               G
She said you'd found someone
      Asus4
And I thought of all the bad luck        
And the struggles we went through
    G
How I lost me, and you lost you
Asus4
What are all these voices
Outside love's open door
        G
Make us throw off our contentment
    Asus4
And beg for something more

[Chorus]
D               Em7             D/F# 
I'm learning to live without you now
      G
But I miss you sometimes
Asus4                  G/B
The more I know, the less I understand
        G
All the things I thought I knew
    Asus4
I'm learning again
D
I've been trying to get down
Em7 
To the heart of the matter
       D/F# 
But my will gets weak
G
And my thoughts seem to scatter
                 Asus4
But I think it's about
             G/B
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
G                Asus4
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore

[Verse]
(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]
D               Em7             D/F# 
I'm learning to live without you now
      G
But I miss you sometimes
Asus4                  G/B
The more I know, the less I understand
        G
All the things I thought I knew
    Asus4
I'm learning again
D
I've been trying to get down
Em7 
To the heart of the matter
       D/F# 
But my will gets weak
G
And my thoughts seem to scatter
                 Asus4
But I think it's about
             G/B
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
G                Asus4
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore

[Bridge]
          Cadd9
There are people in your life
G/B 
Who've come and gone
     Asus4
They let you down
              G/B
You know they hurt your pride
Cadd9
You better put it all behind you babe
     G/B 
'Cuz life goes on
         Asus4
You keep carrying that anger
         Asus4
It'll eat you up inside baby

[Chorus]
D               Em7             D/F# 
I'm learning to live without you now
      G
But I miss you sometimes
Asus4                  G/B
The more I know, the less I understand
        G
All the things I thought I knew
    Asus4
I'm learning again
D
I've been trying to get down
Em7 
To the heart of the matter
       D/F# 
But my will gets weak
G
And my thoughts seem to scatter
                 Asus4
But I think it's about
             G/B
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
G                Asus4
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore
