[Verse]
                  G                  Am
A sword of sorrow pierced your soul
            G   C
You carried on
              G           F
It was a cruel letting go
            G
You carried on

[Chorus]
                         D        G
Understanding love, understanding love
                         F        G      C
Understanding love, understanding love

[Verse]
                  G             Am
There are no easy answers here
        G   C
I carry on
                 G              F
I come to you to still the fear
        G
I carry on

[Chorus]
                         D        G
Understanding love, understanding love
                         F        G      D
Understanding love, understanding love


[Bridge]
        Em      D
Rock me in your arms tonight
  G        D        G     C
A banished child of Eve
                    G/B
I need to feel your courage
       F  C         D  C   G
Mother Mary, Mother Mary
          Am
Mother me

[Verse]
                  G             Am
There are no easy answers here
        G   C
I carry on
                 G              F
I come to you to still the fear
        G
I carry on

[Chorus]
                         D        G
Understanding love, understanding love
                         F        G      C
Understanding love, understanding love
