C Cadd9 C Asus2 Am
C Cadd9 C Am7   Am

VERSE:
    C
I"m not the kind of guy to let jelousy
Am                  Asus4
break me up inside
     C
I've got no time for sympathy

that girl she's just a memory
     Am                 Asus4 Am
over which I'll glide.

F    F6       G6          Am
Some say that I shouldn't care
     F                            G         Am
that I should celebrate now she's out of my hair
    F    G Am       F                 C
but Lord knows, the pride you hide.

C
Hanging around the same old bars and driving in the same old cars
         Asus2               Asus4 Am
with the same old friends.
      C
Those weekends I spent on my own,

at first I found it hard alone.
        Am
Now I'm on the mend.

  F     F6            G6           Am
A voice tells me that I was such a fool
    F                      G        Am
to throw away everything I had with you.
    F    G  Am      F                C
But Lord knows, the pride you hide
            Fmaj7          C
when you're breakin' up inside.
F    G  Am     F                 C
Lord knows the pride you hide.

(CHORUS:)

    C
The pride you hide, when you're breakin' up inside.
Am
Every single day sees this man break down and cry,
C
try and find the strength to make it through the day,
Am
try and find the strength to say come back and stay.
    C
And all my emotions lying in the snow
      Am
we're walking down the streets where the two of us used to go.
F
Somewhere over there from the door of a street cafe
G
I hear that old blues guitar play:


(SLIDE SOLO, like VERSE)

   C
I found some things of yours today, and an old guitar you used to play,
           Am         Asus2 Am
threw them all away.
     C
They took me to another place

I smelt your perfume, saw your face
          Am              Asus2 Am
with your hair that way.

F        F6             G6         Am
All that happened was a stupid mistake
  F            F6       G6       Am
I acted like a fool now it's too late
      F            F6          G6            Am
I'm another lonely guy with no heart for forgiving,
    F         F6              G6       Am
without you around, I find it so hard living.
F    G  Am      F                C
Lord knows, the pride you hide,
            F                    C
when you're breakin' up inside.
F    G  Am      F                C
Lord knows, the pride you hide,
            F                    C
when you're breakin' up inside.
