Long on Lonely (Short on Pride)
written by Bob McDill, Dickey Lee, and Bucky Jones
CAPO I
INTRO: A D A D
[A]I'll bet that yo[E]u're surprised to [D]see me
You wonder what I'm d[A]oin' at your do[E]or
[A]But you can't be [E]more surprised than [D]I am
I thought I didn't n[A]eed you any[E]more
[Bm]Thought there was so[A]methin' wa[D]iting out th[E]ere
[Bm]Somethin' I w[A]anted, but n[D]ow it's so c[E]lear
CHORUS:
Baby it's a c[A]old, cold w[D]orld out [A]here tonight
It's nothin' at a[A]ll like [D]I thought I'd[E] find
So if you w[A]onder [D]why I'm s[A]tandin' here[D]
I'm a little l[A]ong on lonely, [E]a little short on pr[A]ide[D]
[A]If you slam the d[E]oor I wouldn't b[D]lame you
You've got every [A]reason to turn me d[E]own
[A]I was so s[E]ure I had the [D]answers
After what I've b[A]een thru I'm not sure [E]now
[Bm]I won't say I l[A]ove you, don't kn[D]ow if it's [E]true
[Bm]I'll just say I [A]need you,[D] God knows I [E]do
CHORUS:
Baby it's a c[A]old, cold wo[D]rld out he[A]re tonight[E]
It's nothin' at a[A]ll like [D]I thought I'[E]d find
So if you w[A]onder [D]why I'm sta[A]ndin' here[D]
I'm a little l[A]ong on lonely, [E]a little short on [F#m]pride[D]
I'm a little l[A]ong on lonely, [E]a little short on p[A]ride [D][A]
