The Temperance Movement - Pride
Chords used
F# - X4432X
Intro Verses
Did you hear when I called you,
Small and trembling in my ruin
Or were you cold as I once told you you could be
(same chords)
Could you feel when I dreamed you,
Every morning on my rise
Dispelling thoughts 'til you were all that I could see
Well I've been running from the source so long
Broke down easy where I once was strong
I was only getting in the way
Of the light that blinds you, if you can't take it
Tell me about your reasons now, 'cos we got nothing to hide
All my pride
All my pride would never let me say
All my pride
All my pride would see you walk away
I was waiting on a higher call
But the revelation never came, oh what a shame
All the same
I hope that everything you ever wanted comes to you some day
But all my pride would never let me say
Instrumental interlude (same as intro/ verses)
Verse 2 (same as other verses)
Saw the sign at the border,
For the road that leads me to
The only hope I ever had,the only home I knew
I felt like I was a soldier,
Forever changed by all I'd seen
Wounded in a holy war that was nothing to do with me
Pre-Chorus (same as other pre-chorus)
Well some nights amid my broken sleep,
In times of weakness steal a little peek
Forbidden memories when I gave to you
When you stripped me open,
In tender moments
Tell me about your reasons now, 'cos we got nothing to hide
Chorus (same as other chorus)
Bridge guitar solo
All my pride
All my pride would never let me say
All my pride
All my pride would see you walk away
I was waiting on a higher call
But the revelation never came, oh what a shame
All the same
I hope that everything you ever wanted comes to you some day
But all my pride would never let me say
