The Searchers - Needles and Pins

Originally in A (then C#), I play in F (then A)

Intro

F→ Fsus2→ FF→ Fsus4→ F→ Fsus2→ F

I saw her todFay, I saw her face

It was a face I Dmloved, and I knew

I had to run awFay and get down on my knees and pDmray

That they’d go away

But still they begFin

Needles and pDmins

Because of all my pBbride, the tears I’ve gotta hCide

Hey, I thought I was smFart, I wanted her

Didn’t think I’d dDmo, but now I see

She’s worse to him than Fme

Let her go ahead, take his love inDmstead

And one day she will see

Just how to say pFlease

And get down on her knDmees

Yeah, that’s how it begBbins

She’ll feel those needles and pCins, hurtin’ her, hurtin’ her

Vox on the 1 of the chord

AWhy can’t I stop and tell myself I’m wGrong, I’m wrong, so wrong

FWhy can’t I stand up and tell myself I’m strEong

Because I saw her todAay, I saw her face

It was the face I Gbmloved, and I knew

I had to run aAway and get down on my knees and Gbmpray

That they’d go away

But still they beAgin

Needles and Gbmpins

Because of all my pDride, the tears I’ve gotta Ehide

Oh, needles and pAins

Needles and piAns
