First Verse
            C
I saw him today, I saw his face
                  Am
It was the face I loved, and I knew
              C
I had to run away
                                   Am
And get down on my knees and pra-a-ay, that they?d go away
                 C                           Am
And still they begin,------------needles and pins
                  F                        G
Because of all my pride, the tears I gotta hide

Second Verse
                   C
Oh I thought I was smart, I?d won his heart
                   Am
I didn't think I'd lose, but now I see
                        C
She's worse to him than me, let her go ahead
                 Am
Take his love instead, and one day he will see
                C                                     Am
Just how to say please------------and get down on his knees
                   F                                  G
Oh that's how it begins, he'll feel those needle and pins

A-hurtin' him , A-hurtin' him

C                                         B
Why can't I stand up, and tell myself I'm strong
