The Price I Pay
           (Billy Bragg)

intro: G  Em  C  G  D

    G                Em
My friend said she could see no way ahead
    A                      C
And I was probably better off without you
              G              Em
She said to face up to the fact that you weren't coming back
     A                    C
And she could make me happy like you used to
        G                 B7
But I'm sorry to say I turned her away
    C                 G# Maj7
Knowing everything she said was true
                 G                Em          C     G  D
And that's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do

            G          Em
There's something inside that hurts my foolish pride
       A                     C
To visit the places we used to go together
       G               Em
Not a day goes by that I don't sit and wonder why
         A                C
Your feelings for me didn't last forever
           G            B7
Girl I love you so much that sometimes it's such
             C              G# Maj7
I'd walk a mile with a stone in my shoe
              G           Em          C      G  D
And that's that price I pay for loving you the way that I do  (2x)

               G                   B7
So keep that phone out of my way for the things I must say
       C                   G# Maj7
Are empty if you don't believe they're true
              G             Em                 C     G  D
And that's that price I pay for loving you the way that I do
              G                 Em                 C     G  D
That's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do

       G        Em
I love you so much that baby it's such
             A              C
I'd walk a mile with a stone in my shoe  ...
