A
I saw her today
I saw her face
                F#m
It was a face I loved
                           A
And I knew, I had to run away
                             F#m
And get down on my knees and pray
That they'd go away

Chorus:
                  A
And still they begin
            F#m
Needles and pins
                    D
Because of all my pride
                     E
The tears I'm gonna hide

                    A
Oh, thought I was smart
I'd won a heart
               F#m
Didn't think I do
But now you see
                        A
She's worse to him and me
Let her go ahead
                  F#m
take this love instead
And one day she will see

Chorus:
                    A
Just how to say "please"
                 F#m
Get down on her knees
                          D
Ayeah, that's how they begin
                               E
She'll feel those needles and pins
Hurtin' her, hurtin' her

 C#                                    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

             C#
I saw her today
I saw her face
                A#m
It was a face I loved
                         C#
And I knew, I had to run away
                             A#m
And get down on my knees and pray
That they'd go away

C#
And still they begin
            A#m
Needles and pins
                   F#
Because of all my pride
                     G#
The tears I'm gonna hide

                 C#
Ah, needles and pins
            A#m
Needles and pins
            C#
Needles and pins
            A#m
Needles and pins
