[A]I saw her today, I saw her face
It was a face I [F#m]loved, and I knew
I had to run a-[A]way and get down on my knees and [F#m]pray
That they’d go away and still they [A]begin
Needles and [F#m]pins because of all my [D]pride, the tears I gotta [E]hide
Oh, thought I was [A]smart, I’d won a heart
Didn’t think I [F#m]do, but now you see
She’s worse to him and [A]me let her go ahead
And take this love in-[F#m]stead and one day she will see
Just how to say [A]“please”
Get down on her [F#m]knees that’s how they [D]begin
You’ll feel those needles and [E]pins. Hurtin’ her, hurtin’ her
[C#m]What can’t I stop and tell myself I’m [Bm]wrong, I’m wrong, so wrong
[A]What can’t I stand up, and tell myself I’m [Ab]strong.
Because I saw her [Db]today, I saw her face
It was a face I [Bbm]loved, and I knew
I had to run [Db]away and get down on my knees and [Bbm]pray
That they’d go away and still they [Db]begin
Needles and [Bbm]pins because of all my [F#]pride the tears I gotta [Ab]hide
Needles and [Db]pins, needles and [Bbm]pins, needles and [Db]pins, needles and [Bbm]pins
