Foolish Pride Tab

by Travis Tritt


====Tabber's note====
To play this song in tune with the CD, say, you would have to play the F
chord to start off with. However I will be playing with a capo on the first
fret. As such, I will be labeling the chords to compensate for that.

[Intro]
,  (x2)

[Verse] 
                                    
She stayed up all night and cried into her pillow
                                               
And fought off the urge to just break down and call
                                      
Last night to find the fault seemed so darn easy
                                           
But now whose to blame don't matter much at all
                                       
She thinks if she calls him it just shows weakness
                                
So the hurt goes on with every tear she's cried
                                   
Ain't it sad to see a good love fall to pieces
                             
Chalk another heartbreak up to foolish pride

[Chorus]
                                 
Turn out the lights the competition's over
                                
The stubborn souls are the losers here tonight
                                                
And while the bridges burn, another hard-hard lesson's learned
                                 
As through the ashes passion slowly dies
    A                 B               E ------> Intro 
And this romance goes down to foolish pride

[Verse 2]
He relives every word they spoke in anger
He walks the floor and punches out the wall
To apologize to her would be so simple
But instead he cries I'll be damned if I'll crawl
If he loses her he's lost his best friend
And that's more then just a lover can provide
So he wrestles with emotions that defeat him
Chalk another love lost up to foolish pride

[Chorus]
Turn out the lights the competition's over
The stubborn souls are the losers here tonight
And while the bridges burn, another hard-hard lesson's learned
As through the ashes passion slowly dies
And this romance goes down to foolish pride
                                     
Chalk another heartbreak up to foolish pride
