The Heart of the Matter The Eagles Hell Freezes Over Transcribed by: Steven P. D xx0232 Dsus2 xx0230 A7sus x02233 G 320003 A x02220 Asus x02230 Em7 022030 D/F# xx4232 Bm x24432 Am x02210 G/B x20033 Intro D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus (repeat 4x) Verse 1 D A I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear G But I knew that it would come D A An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone G She said you found someone A And I thought of all the bad luck, And the struggles we went through G How I lost me and you lost you A What are these voices outside love's open door G Make us throw off our contentment Asus A And beg for something more? Chorus 1 D Em7 D/F# I've been learning to live without you now G But I miss you sometimes D Bm The more I know, the less I understand G Asus A All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again D Em7 I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter D/F# But my will gets weak G And my thoughts seem to scatter D But I think it's a - bout forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus (repeat 2x) Even if, even if you don't love me anymore Verse 2 D These times are so uncertain A There's a yearning undefined G And people filled with rage D We all need a little tenderness A G How can love survive in such a graceless age A And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness G They're the very things we kill, I guess A Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms G And the work I put between us Asus A You know it doesn't keep me warm Chorus 2 D Em7 D/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 Asus A All the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again D Em7 I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter D/F# But everything changes G And my friends seem to scatter D But I think it's a - bout forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A D G D Even if, even if you don't love me anymore Bridge C G There are people in your life who've come and gone Am G/B They let you down, you know they hurt your pride C G You better put it all behind you, baby; �cause life goes on A You keep carryin' that anger, it'll eat you up inside, baby Chorus 3 D Em7 I�ve been tryin� to get down, to the heart of the matter D/F# But my will gets weak G And my thoughts seem to scatter D But I think it's a - bout forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A Even if, even if you don't love me Final Chorus D Em7 I've been tryin' to get down to the heart of the matter D/F# Because the flesh will get weak G And the ashes will scatter D So, I'm thinkin' a - bout forgiveness Bm Forgiveness G A Even if, even if you don't love me D Em7 D/F# (Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness, G D Bm forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness) G A Even if you don't love me anymore D Dsus2 D Dsus2 A7sus (repeat 2x) D This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to experiment with your own chord voicings.
