by Burton Cummings

Transcribed by Steve Garner ([email protected])

Intro: G

Verse 1:

G Em

Never been this blue

Dm G7

I never knew the meaning of a heartache

C Am

But then again

G D

I never lost at love before

G Em

Somewhere down the road

Dm G7

Maybe all those years will find some meaning

C Am

I just can't think about 'em now

G D

Or live them out anymore

Chorus 1:

G D C

Stand tall, don't you fall

G D C

For God's sake, don't go and do somethin' foolish

G D G D

All you're feeling right now is silly human pride

G D C

Oh, stand tall, don't you fall

G D C

Mmm, don't do somethin' you might regret later

G D

You're feelin' it like everyone

G D

It's silly human pride

Verse 2:

G Em

Never lasted so long, no

Dm G7

Or through so much or through so many

C Am G D

I just can't believe I could throw it all away

G Em

Sometimes late at night

Dm G7

When there's nothing here except my old piano

C Am G D

I'd almost give my hands to make you see my way

Chorus 2 / Outro:

G D C

Stand tall, don't you fall

G D C

Oh for God's sake, don't go do somethin' foolish

G D G

All you're feeling right now is silly human pride

D

You got me down on my knees for you mama

G D C

Stand tall, don't you fall

G D C

Oh don't do something you'll regret later

G D

A-feelin' it like everyone

G

It's silly human pride

D G

You got me fallin' again for you mama

D C

Stand tall, don't you fall

G D C

Oh you got me fallin' again for you lady

G D

A-feelin' it like everyone

G D

It's silly human pride
