BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN – TOUGHER THAN THE REST (KEY: G)
Cover by catia512 . View his great video of the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-0uwbLkPTE . I tabbed it based on his version.
In the outro, "_" means that you should let the note ring out/play it slowly. Hope you enjoy it :-) .

-8 -8 8 -9 -9
I been watching you awhile
-9 8 8 -8 7 -8

8 8 -8 8 8
So somebody ran out
8 -9 8 7 -8

Well, if you're looking for love
-9 8 -9 8 8 -8 7 7
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
7 7 7 -8 -8 8 8
Some girls they want a handsome Dan
8 8 -9 8 7 -8
Or some good-lookin' Joe
7 7 -8 8 -9 -9
On their arms some girls
-9 -9 -9 8 8 8 -8 7 -8
Like a sweet-talkin' Romeo
8 8 -8 8 8
Well, 'round here, baby
8 -9 8 7 -8

So if you're rough enough for love
-9 8 -9 8 8 -8 7 7
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
8 8 -8 -8 7
Your road is dark
8 8 -8 8 8
And it's a thin, thin line
8 8 (8) -9 9 9
But I want you to know
9 9 9 -9 8 -8 8 8
I'll walk it for you any time
8 8 8 8 -8 -8 7
Maybe your other boyfriends
8 8 -8 8 8
Couldn't pass the test
7 -8 7 -8 7 -8 8 -9 -9
Well, if you're rough and ready for love
-9 8 -9 8 8 -8 7 7
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
