[Intro] A E [Verse 1] A Well, my daddy always told me D E A D E I was living in a man's world A D But that don't mean there ain't room E A D for a big-hearted girl E A So my mama took me pickin' said D E A D that we could buy a set of tools E A So that I could build my own life D E A D and play by my own rules E D A E I was set in my ways, I had made up my mind D A E I was filing for divorce by the age of 29 D A E Couldn't see the light at the end of the road D E Had to stop to think of how the story goes [Chorus] A I was born tough, torn up D E Hardened by time A I've been let down, all around D Discouraged by life E D And it gets hard not to cry E So I have a thousand times D A Well, I was born tough [Verse 2] A Well, I can say for certain D E A D I was hell-bent on leaving town E A So I hitched myself a trailer D E A D Packed the things I couldn't live without E D E A I was bound and determined to never go back there D A E Didn't matter to me then, could have been anywhere D Things are different now E It just don't feel the same D E When they call me by my old name [Chorus] A I was born tough, torn up D E Hardened by time A I've been let down, all around D Discouraged by life E D And it gets hard not to cry E So I have a thousand times A And I can hold on for so long D And never let go E A I can ride out, shoot the lights out D And close out the show E D But when I say I've had enough E Darling don't you call my bluff D A Cause I was born tough D A I was born tough [Interlude] D A D A [Bridge] D A E I know it ain't easy D A E And no one ever said it should be D But that don't mean it ain't worth E believing in someone or something [Out-Chorus] A I was born tough, torn up D E Hardened by time A I've been let down, all around D Discouraged by life E D And it gets hard not to cry E So I have a thousand times A And I can hold on for so long D And never let go E A I can ride out, shoot the lights out D And close out the show E D But when I say I've had enough E Darling don't you call my bluff D Yeah, when I say I've had enough E Darling, don't you call my bluff D A Cause I was born tough D A I was born tough D A I was born tough D A
