Needles and pins

                  A
I saw her today,
I saw her face,
                       Fm
It was a face I loved, and I knew,
                  A
I had to run away,
                                                Fm
And get down on my knees and pray
That they'd go away,
                           A
And still they begin,
                         Fm
Needles and pins,
                               D
Because of all my pride,
                           E
The tears I gotta hide.

                               A
Oh, thought I was smart,
I'd won a heart,
                     Fm
Didn't think I do,
But now you see,
                                      A
She's worse to him and me,
Let her go ahead,
                                 Fm
And take this love instead,
And one day she will see,
                            A
Just how to say "please",
                            Fm
Get down on her knees,
                             D
That's how they begin,
                                                E
You'll feel those needles and pins,
Hurtin' her, hurtin' her,

                                                                      B
Why can't I stop and tell myself I'm wrong, I'm wrong, so wrong,
              A                                                    G#
Why can't I stand up, and tell myself I'm strong.

Because I saw her today 
I saw her face,
                       Am
It was a face I loved, and I knew,
                     C
I had to run away, 
                                                   Am
And get down on my knees and pray,
That they'd go away,
                         C
And still they begin,
                     Am
Needles and pins,
                              F
Because of all my pride,
                            G
The tears I gotta hide...
