G I hated like the devil to tell her we were through C G I was sure it would break her heart and tear her world in two C She is such a fragile thing Lord, I hate to make her cry G D G So I broke it to her gently when I told her goodbye [Chorus] C G She cussed me like a sailor, kicked a hole through the kitchen wall A7 D D7 She threw a fit and threw the phone half-way down the hall G C A7 She said "I'll be down at the bar", then I heard the front door slam C D G I guess all in all she took it like a man [Verse] G I was thinking she'd reach out to me and beg me not to go C G Or run straight to her momma, cause I'd hurt her so C Thought she'd be devastated, I had a tender moment planned G D G Didn't think that she could take it, but she took it like a man [Chorus] C G She cussed me like a sailor, kicked a hole through the kitchen wall A7 D D7 She threw a fit and threw the phone half-way down the hall G C A7 She said "I'll be down at the bar", then I heard the front door slam C D G I guess all in all she took it like a man C D G I guess all in all she took it like a man
