CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C F C F
C G F
Uncle Slim had let her know she couldn't ride that horse
C F Csus4-F C
He was the one that was only meant for men
Dm7
She waited 'round 'til way after dark
Fm
Rode that horse with all her heart
C Cadd9 G
And in the night how she rode
CHORUS:
F C Em F
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C Cadd9 G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
F C
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7 C
This is how she has to live her life
F G C F C F
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
C G F
Mama and daddy told her from the start he was no good
C F Csus4-F C
They'd seen how he treated the other girls
Dm7
She waited around till the sun went down
Fm
Slipped out of the house not making a sound
C Cadd9 G
And in the night, oh, how they drove
CHORUS:
F C Em F
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C Cadd9 G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
F C
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7 C
This is how she has to live her life
F G C
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
BRIDGE:
Am Em
It was fifteen years to the day
F Dm F
He became a stranger in her eyes
Am Em
In the coldest words of anger
Dm7 G
He said without me you won't survive
N.C. C G F
There's a suitcase in the closet she had packed six months ago
C F Csus4-F C
She don't leave a note that's not her style
Dm7
So she waited around till way after dark
Fm
Left that man who broke her heart
C Cadd9 G
Now she's gone, oh, she's gone
CHORUS:
F C Em F
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C Cadd9 G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
F C
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7 C
This is how she has to live her life
F G C F
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
G C F C F C
Yes, she's gotta find out for herself
