Forgiven

Forgiven - Alanis Morissette Acoustic version from Jagged Little Pill For reference, see: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbWa-dAkQDg) Please note that this is my interpretation of the song! I may not be playing the exact same chords as on the record, but at least you won't get booed off stage if you use them. (At least it won't be my fault if it happens!) I tried my best, but I'm not certain about the accuracy of the lyrics. Here are some chord grips for some of the more unusual chords (the numbers above some of them are recommended fretting fingers): 1 4 2 Aadd9: X-0-2-4-2-(0) t 1 3 2 F#7: 2-x-2-3-2-(0) Bmaj9(no 3rd): 0-2-4-4-4-0 or: X-x-2-4-4-0 Caug: X-3-2-1-1-x If the chord grips for the Aadd9 and F#7 chords in the intro are too difficult to fret, alternatively you could play both using a regular E major-shaped bar chord and just lift your bar finger to let the open e and B strings ring out. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Intro (00:00) AF#79 AF#79 Verse (00:13) Aadd9 F#7 F#7d9 You know how us Catholic girls can be. Aadd9 F#7 Bmaj9(no 3rd) We make up for so much time a little too late.

Verse (1:30) Aadd9 F#7 Aadd9 I sang Alleluia in the choir, F#7 (Allelu-allelu-allelu-ya-ah) Aadd9 F#7 Bmaj9(no 3rd) I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man. E Caug C#m E7 My brothers, they never went blind for what they did, F#7 Am but I may as well have E Caug C#m E7 in the name of the Father, the Skeptic and the Son. F#7 Am I have one more stupid question, yeah Chorus (2:21) D C# D We all had our reasons to be there, C# D we all had a thing or two to learn, C# BsusB we all needed something to cling to, CCsus4 so we did. Bridge (2:46) D E D What I learned I rejected, but I believe again. C# I will suffer the consequence of his inquisition. D E F#sus4 F#sus4 If I jump in this fountain, will I be forgiven? Chorus (3:12) (single stroke on each) D C# D We all had our reasons to be there, C# D we all had a thing or two to learn, C# BsuB4 we all needed something to cling to, C#suC4 so we did. Chorus (3:38) D C# D We all had delusions in our heads, C# D we all had our minds made up for us, C# Bsus4 B we had to believe in something, C#Bus4 so we did.
