(Intro)
[G] [C] [G] [D]
(Verse 1)
Sweet for[G]giveness, that's what you [D]give to me.
When you [G]hold me close,[G7]
And you say: "That's all [C]over."[Cm]
You don't go [G]looking back,[D][Em]
You [D]don't hold the [C]cards to [Em7]the stack.[Am7][G]
'Cause you [D7]mean what you say.
(Verse 2)
Sweet for[G]giveness, you [D]help me see.
I'm not [G]near as bad,[G7]
As I sometimes ap[C]pear to be.[Cm]
When you [G]hold me [D]close,[Em]
And you [D]say: "That's al[C]l over,[Em7][Am7]
"And [D7]I still [G]love you."[D][C][G][G7]
(Chorus)
There's no [C]way that I could make up,
For those [G]angry words I [G7]said.
[C]Sometimes it gets to [Em]hurting,
And the [Am]pain goes to my [D7]head.
(Verse 4)
Sweet for[G]giveness, dear [D]God above.
I say [G] we all dese[G7]rve,
A taste of [C]that kind of love.[Cm]
Someone who'll [G] hold [D]onto our [Em]hand,
And [D]whisper: "I [C]under--[Em7]stand,[Am7]
And [D7]I still [G]love you."[D][C][G]

There's no [C]way that I could make up,

(Verse 5)
Sweet for[G]giveness, oh dear [D]God, dear God above.
Oh, I know [G] we all, we all de[G7]serve,
A taste of this [C]kind of love.[Cm]

And whisper: "[C]I under--[Em7]stand,[Am7]
And [D7]I still [G]love you."[D][C][G]
