Capo 2
G5 C5
The phone call in the middle of the night, it never came
G5
She's been walkin' on pins and needles waitin' for the
C5
phone to ring
D5
To put her mind at ease
G5
The suns' comin' up and I'm comin' in
C5 D5
With another "I'm sorry, It won't happen again"
E5 G5
I can't understand why she never ran
C5 D5
When anybody in their right mind would
G5
Yeah I'm a hard man to love
E5
But thank God she does
C5
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
D5
When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough
G5
Soft as silk she stands
E5
By her barbed wire man
C5
She's never given up
D5
I'm A hard man to love
There's a dog house rose that God knows I didn't send soon enough
Sittin' in the middle of a crippled kitchen table barely standing up from where our kitchen was
It ain't pretty enough to make up for me messin' up the only love a man could ever need
She shines forgiveness from her patient eyes
I don't see what they see in me
Yeah I'm a hard man to love
But thank God she does
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough
Soft as silk she stands
By her barbed wire man
She's never given up
I'm A hard man to love
E5 C5 G5 D5
But I found someone tough enough to love a man like me
E5 C5 G5
In spite of the tears she's cried and the time she's tried
D5
so hard to love
This hard man to love
But thank God she does
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough
Soft as silk she stands
By her barbed wire man
She's never given up
I'm A hard man to love
No she's never given up
On this hard man to love
Note: Sorry if some of the lyrics are messed up. Also, in the chorus, walkdown from
