Verse One
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
All alone staring on watching her life go by
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
When her days are grey and her nights are black, Different shades of mundane
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
And the one eyed furry toy that lies upon the bed Has often heard her cry
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
And heard her whisper out a name long forgiven but not forgotten
Chorus
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're not forgotten
Verse Two
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
Bleeding heart torn apart , And left on an icey grave
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
In a room where they once lay face to face, Nothing could get in the way
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
But now the memories of a man are haunting her days, And the craving never fades
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
She's still dreaming of a man long forgiven but not forgotten
The lick at the end of the verse is played like this:
E---------------------------------
B---------------------------------
G--7>9>7-5-7-5---5----------------
D--7>9>7-------7----7-5-----------
A------------------------7--------
E---------------------------8--5--
Chorus
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're not forgotten
Verse Three
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
Still alone Staring on wishing her life goodbye
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
As she goes searching for the man long forgiven, but not forgotten
The build-up towards the end of the verse is just a steadily-increasing-in-volume
series of notes played on the fifth fret of the top E and B strings, finishing
with a quick slide up to and back from the 10th fret.
Chorus
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten
Am C Dsus2 Am7 G Dsus2
You're forgiven not forgotten, You're not forgotten
