Verse

G
Shes in the kitchen at the crack of dawn

Bacons on, coffees strong
     D                    A/C#
Kids running wild, taking off their clothes
           Bm                     A
If shes a nervous wreck, well it never shows
G
Takes one to football and one to dance
Em             Asus4     A
Hits the Y for aerobics class
      D                  A/C#
Drops by the bank, stops at the store

Has on a smile when I walk through the door
G                 D/F#                         Em
The last to go to bed, shell be the first one up
    A               D
And I thought I was tough


Chorus

Shes strong, pushes on, cant slow her down
        Bb      C          A
She can take anything life dishes out
      G
There was a time
D/F#        Em
Back before she was mine
     A               D
When I thought I was tough


Verse

We sat there five years ago
The doctors let us know, the test showed
Shed have to fight to live, I broke down and cried
She held me and said its gonna be alright
She wore that wig to church
Pink ribbon pinned there on her shirt
No room for fear, full of faith
Hands held high singing Amazing Grace
Never once complained, refusing to give up
And I thought I was tough

Chorus

Shes strong, pushes on, cant slow her down
She can take anything life dishes out
There was a time
Back before she was mine
When I thought I was tough


Bridge

        C                G/B
Shes a gentle word, the sweetest kiss
  Asus4         A               Bass Run G  F#  D
A velvet touch against my skin
     C                  G/B
Ive seen her cry, Ive seen her break
    Em                 Asus4   A  Bb      C  
D
But in my eyes, shell always be strong

Bb  C  A

      G
There was a time

Back before she was mine

When I thought I was tough
