Intro
CDCD CCGG
C
1.I hated like the devil
G
To tell her we were through
C
I was sure it would break her heart
G
Tear her world in two
G
She is such a fragile thing
C
Lord, I hate to make her cry
G C
So I broke it to her gently
D C G
When I told her goodbye
C D
C.She cussed me like a sailor
C
Kicked a hole through the kitchen wall
G
She threw a fit and threw the phone
G C
Half-way down the hall
G
She saidI`ll be down at the bar
C D
Then I heard the front door slam
G
I guess all in all
C G CCGG
She took it like a man
2.I was thinking she`d reach out to me
And beg me not to go
Or run straight to her momma`s
`Cause I`d hurt her so
Thought she`d be devastated
I had a tender moment plan
I didn`t think that she could take it
But she took it like a man
Repeat Chorus
