G C
The phone call in the middle of the night, it never came G
She's been walkin' on pins and needles waitin' for the
C
phone to ring
D
To put her mind at ease
G
The suns' comin' up and I'm comin' in
C D
With another "I'm sorry, It won't happen again"
Em G
I can't understand why she never ran
C D
When anybody in their right mind would
G
Yeah I'm a hard man to love
Em
But thank God she does
C
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
D
When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough
G
Soft as silk she stands
Em
By her barbed wire man
C
She's never given up
D
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
Em C G D
But I found someone tough enough to love a man like me
Em C G
In spite of the tears she's cried and the time she's tried
D
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
