Iris Dement - Sweet Forgiveness Chords

[Verse 1]
G  D        G                         D
   Sweet forgiveness, that's what you give to me
           G           G7
When you hold me close
                           C    Cm
And you say: "That's all over"
             G           G/F#  Em
You don't go looking back,
    Em/D              C      C/B   Am  Am/G
You don't hold the cards to stack
                  D/F#         D  D7
  'Cause you mean what you say
 
[Verse 2]
D        G             D
Sweet forgiveness, you help me see
          G          G7
I'm not near as bad
                  C          Cm
As I sometimes appear to be
         G         G/F#  Em
When you hold me close
    Em/D                 C   C/B  Am  D
And you say: "That's all over
             G           D C G  G7
"And I still love you"
 
[Chorus]
             C
There's no way that I could make up
            G
For those angry words I said
  C                  Bm
Sometimes it gets to hurting
        A7              D
And the pain goes to my head
 
[Verse 4]
D          G            D
Sweet forgiveness, dear God above
          G          G7
I say we all deserve
                C            Cm
A taste of this kind of love
                G            G/F#  Em
Someone who'll hold onto our hand
    Em/D        C         C/B  Am
And whisper: "I understand
      D7                G    A G# G
And I stilllll loooove you"
