[Verse 1]
G
Me and Hannah did everything together
                   Em
Said we'd be best friends forever
                        C
Then her momma got a job that was better
               G
across the parish line
D               G
I was one summer shy of eleven
                       Em
when granddaddy took a ride up to heaven
                      C
it ain't ever been an easy lesson
               G
on how to say goodbye
 D                Am
They say what don't kill you  makes you stronger
             C
and I believe that's right
 
[Chorus]
C
For every low down beating this old hearts taken
G
whisper in the dark says I won't make it
Em
I know it's just the devil
                              G        D
doing what he does trying to make me suffer
C
no matter what the battle is keeping me praying
G
I gotta be strong I gotta keep saying
Em                                           D
I'm gonna make it through it one way or the other
         C     D                G
Life is tough, but this girl's tougher
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
I'm a sucker for a boy with blue eyes
                   Em
A pair of boots and an old 4-wheel drive
                          C
so when I saw you in the July moonlight
            G
I thought, "Oh good Lord."
D           G
I let you lay that sunkiss on me
                   Em
and open up that truck door for me
                         C
now I find out that I ain't the only
            G
girl you're doing that for
 D                Am
you're gonna get a good cry from me tonight
C
but nothing more
 
[Chorus]
C
For every low down beating this old hearts taken
G
whisper in the dark says I won't make it
Em
I know it's just the devil
                              G        D
doing what he does trying to make me suffer
C
no matter what the battle is keeping me praying
G
I gotta be strong I gotta keep saying
Em                                           D
I'm gonna make it through it one way or the other
          C     D               G
Life is tough, but this girl's tougher
 
 
[Bridge]
       Em                  D
Than anything you throw my way
C
Yeah I might bend, but I won't break
 Em                      D
You ain't the first,won't be the last
C
to make me feel this way
 
 
[Chorus]
C
For every low down beating this old hearts taken
G
whisper in the dark says I won't make it
Em
I know it's just the devil
                              G       D
doing what he does trying to make me suffer
C
no matter what the battle is keeping me praying
G
I gotta be strong I gotta keep saying
Em                                           D
I'm gonna make it through it one way or the other
         C      D               Em
Life is tough, but this girl's tougher
          C     D
Life is tough, but this girl's tougher
