      G                           C  
Well, I gotta keep my reputation, I gotta keep my pride
C                                  C               D         G   
Can't let you know you've hurt me, I can't let you know I've cried
  G                        C     
I gotta make you think I'm happy everywhere I go
  D                             C              G
I gotta keep my hurt inside me, I can't let it show

        G                         C
I gotta drink up and be somebody, I have another round
D                                C                 D
I can't let my troubles find me, I gotta keep your mem'ry down
G                             C   
Can't let you drive me crazy, I can't let you win 
        D            C            G  
I gotta drink up and be somebody again


Well, I can't spend my whole life grieving, I gotta find myself
I gotta put me back together, I gotta find me someone else
I don't make you think I'm happy everywhere I go
I gotta keep my hurt inside me, I can't let it show


Chorus
