 G       D    F       G
Here I stand head in hand
 C                   F C
Turn my face to the wall
G         D      F       G
If she's gone I can't go on
 C                 F C D
Feelin' two-foot small

Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Chorus:
 G                                Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

How can I even try?
I can never win
Hear them, see them
In the state I'm in
(Be quiet)

How could she say to me
"Love will find a way"
Gather 'round, all you clowns
Let me hear you say

Chorus:
(Hey!)
Hey! You've got to hide your love away
Hey! You've got to hide your love away

Do do dooo do
Dooo do-do-do
Do do do-do do do doooooo

(Just die your hair bright red.)
(Hey, shh, just be quiet and let us sing it.)

and I are gonna sing it.)
