VERSE:

      D                 C*         

       If you want to wreck my life

      D             C*

       Go ahead my love                  NOTE: C* means play this:

      D                    C*                  -  C  Csus4  C -

       Tried it once with poison

      D                    C*

       Tried it once with drugs

      D                C*

       Circulation's running dry

             D                C*

       It's you that drank me up

      D                      C*

       Screwed me down with kindness

      D             C*

       Suffocating love

       When it comes to fighting

       F                  C

       Trying to play it rough

       F                 Eb

VERSE:

       Saw you on TV last night

       In a rerun soap

       You were young and beautiful

       Already without hope



       But I didn't think you ever knew

       What you've bitten off

       And in the end you spat me out

       You could not chew me up

       Too tough, too tough, too tough, too tough



CHORUS:

       When it comes to fighting     

       Trying to play it rough

       I will take you twenty rounds

       I'm just too tough, too tough





INSTRUMENTAL:   SOLO OVER VERSE CHORDS





VERSE:

       I was married yesterday

       To a teenage bride

       You said it's only physical

       But I love her deep inside

       I still see you in my dreams

       With a kitchen knife

       With it poised above your head

       Now who you gonna slice?





CHORUS:

       When it comes to fighting

       Trying to play it rough

       I will take you twenty rounds

       I'm just too tough, too tough

 D C  D C         D  C         D  C

         Too tough,   too tough





VERSE:

       I don't think you'll ever know

       What you've bitten off

       But in the end you spat me out

       You could not chew me up

       I was too tough, too tough

       Too tough, too tough

       Too tough, too tough

       Too tough

       Too tough, too tough

       Too tough, too tough
