[Verse 1]
Pride will bow your head in sorrow
Pride will make you do things you know aren't fair
Pride never thinks about tomorrow
And too late, you find that you still care

[Chorus]
For when your only love has gone forever
There's a loneliness down deep inside
When the ties of love are cut and severed
There'll be only you and you'll cry

[Guitar Solo]

[Fiddle Solo]

[Verse 2]
When your love has gone away
And the heart within you has died
You won't find any comfort just in knowing that you're right
You won't find any happiness in pride

[Chorus]
Then you'll pray to God for your sweetheart's return
You'll rue each day that you're apart
Take the word of one who paid a high price to learn
Oh, pride can't soothe your aching heart
