Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

 I"m not the kind of guy to let jelousy

 break me up inside

 I've got no time for sympathy

that girl she's just a memory

 over which I'll glide.

 Some say that I shouldn't care

 that I should celebrate now she's out of my hair

 but Lord knows, the pride you hide.

 Hanging around the same old bars and driving in the same old cars

 with the same old friends.

 Those weekends I spent on my own,

at first I found it hard alone.

 Now I'm on the mend.

 A voice tells me that I was such a fool

 to throw away everything I had with you.

 But Lord knows, the pride you hide

 when you're breakin' up inside.

 Lord knows the pride you hide.

(CHORUS:)

 The pride you hide, when you're breakin' up inside.

 Every single day sees this man break down and cry,

 try and find the strength to make it through the day,

 try and find the strength to say come back and stay.

 And all my emotions lying in the snow

 we're walking down the streets where the two of us used to go.

 Somewhere over there from the door of a street cafe

 I hear that old blues guitar play:

(SLIDE SOLO, like VERSE)

 I found some things of yours today, and an old guitar you used to play,

 threw them all away.

 They took me to another place

I smelt your perfume, saw your face

 with your hair that way.

 All that happened was a stupid mistake

 I acted like a fool now it's too late

 I'm another lonely guy with no heart for forgiving,

 without you around, I find it so hard living.

 Lord knows, the pride you hide,

 when you're breakin' up inside.

 Lord knows, the pride you hide,

 when you're breakin' up inside.
