Capo 5th Fret
 
[Intro]
Am D Am D
 
[Verse]
         Am
It's the hardest thing to give away
        Am
And the last thing on your mind today
   D
It always goes to those that don't deserve
         Am
It's the opposite of how you feel
         Am
When the pain they caused is just too real
        D
It takes everything you have just to say the word
           Am           D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
   Am
It flies in the face of all your pride
   Am
It moves away the mad inside
    D
It's always anger's own worst enemy
   Am
Even when the jury and the judge 
   Am
Say you gotta right to hold a grudge
         D
It's the whisper in your ear saying 'Set It Free'
 
[Chorus]
          Am            D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
          Em           G
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
           A
Show me how to love the unlovable
           D
Show me how to reach the unreachable
   Em                     D
Help me now to do the impossible
 
           Am            D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
           Em              D
Help me now to do the impossible
           Am
Forgiveness
 
[Verse]
       Am
It'll clear the bitterness away
       Am
It can even set a prisoner free
      D
There is no end to what it's power can do
    A
So, let it go and be amazed
    Am
By what you see through eyes of grace
    Em                               D
The prisoner that it really frees is you
 
[Chorus]
           Am           D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
          Em           G
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
           A
Show me how to love the unlovable
           D
Show me how to reach the unreachable
           Em              D
Help me now to do the impossible
         Am
Forgiveness
 
[Bridge]
   Am
I want to finally set it free
   D
So show me how to see what Your mercy sees
           Em                G
Help me now to give what You gave to me
 
[Outro]
          Am           D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
          Am           D
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
 
Am (until end of song)

It looks like you changed it to a minor key but forgot that the D should be a Dm
