Heart Of The Matter

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

D               A                Bm
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
To the heart of the matter
       Bm
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
          D
Ah these times are so uncertain
            A
There's a yearning undefined
 G
People filled with rage
         D
We all need a little tenderness
A
How can love survive
    G
In such a graceless age
        A
Oh the trust and self-assurance
      A7
That lead to happiness
        G
They're the very things we kill I guess
     A
Oh pride and competition
       A7
Cannot fill these empty arms
        G
And the work I put between us
            A
You know it doesn't keep me warm

D               A/E              Bm/F#
I'm learning to live without you now
       G
But I miss you baby
D                    Bm
The more I know, the less I understand
        G
All the things I thought I figured out
          A
I have to learn again
D
I've been trying to get down
A
To the heart of the matter
   Bm
But everything changes
      G
And my friends seem to scatter
                   D
But I think it's about
            A
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
G                A
Even if, Even if you don't love me anymore

          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
    A7
It'll eat you up inside baby

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