"STAND TALL"
by Burton Cummings
Transcribed by Steve Garner (s_garner@hotmail.com)
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:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/cummings_burton/stand_tall_crd.html ]
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

All you're feeling right now is silly human pride

You got me down on my knees for you mama

Oh don't do something you'll regret later

A-feelin' it like everyone
G
It's silly human pride

You got me fallin' again for you mama

Stand tall, don't you fall

Oh you got me fallin' again for you lady

A-feelin' it like everyone
