[A]
I saw him today, I saw his face, it [F#m] was a face I loved
And I knew [C#m] I had to [A] run away
And get down on my knees [C#] and pray
That they'd blow away, but still [A] they'd be giving up
[E] [F#m] Needless to print them
Because [D] of all my pride
The tears I [C#] gotta [E] hide
[F#] Hey, I thought I [A] was smart
I had a point of heart, I [F#] didn't think I [C#m] knew
[F#m] But now I [A] see, she's wasted and with me
Let her go ahead, take his [F#m] love and stay
And one day she will see [A] just how to shake the knees
And get down [F#m] on her knees
Hey, that's how it begins
[D] [E]
[F#m] Why [C#] can't I stop and tell [B] myself I'm wrong, I'm wrong so wrong
[A] Why can't I stand up and tell [G#] myself I'm wrong
[N] Because I [C#] saw him today, I saw his face, it was [G#m] a face [A#m] I loved
And I knew I had to [C#] run away
And get down on my knees and [A#m] pray
That they'd blow away, but still [C#] they'd be giving up
[A#m] Needless to print them
Because [F#] of all my pride
The tears I [G#] gotta hide
[D#] [G#m] Needless to print [A#] them
Needless [C#] to print them
[A#] Needless to print [C#] them
[F#] [G#m] [A#m]
