Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

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 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

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 changes gets 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

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
