Ho’oponopono: Please Forgive Me

heart lit from within

Ho'oponopono Hawaiin prayer

.

I’m Sorry. Please Forgive Me | 10/21/2011 | Song #432 | Mark Shepard
(Inspired by Ho'oponopono – Hawaiian Prayer)

I’ve got nothing left to give you
Except this simple song
I’ve got nothing else give you
So I hope you’ll sing along

Refrain:
I’m sorry. Please forgive me
Thank you. I love you
I’m sorry. Please forgive me
Thank you. I love you

Some days I barely make it
Some days I’m hardly here at all
Some days I try to fake it
And I feel like I’m going to take a fall

Refrain:

Every step’s a challenge
When you walk barefoot on broken glass
Every thought’s a cage we build
When we keep clinging to the past

Refrain:

We all have our good reasons
That later, turn out to be lies
You can not fight the seasons
Ask any fool who tries…

Refrain:

The only thing to count on
Is that “this too shall pass…”
The only thing to count on
Is that Love is bound to last…

Refrain:

Standard tuning: capo 5th fret play C | F | G
