G                  C     
Well it's Saturday night
                          G
You're all dressed up and blue
                           F
I've been watching you go out
               C           G
Maybe you been watching me too
                C
So somebody ran out
                           G
Left somebody's heart in a mess
                           F 
Well if you're lookin' for love
          C       G        C 
Honey I'm tougher than the rest
C                               C
Some girls they want a handsome Dan
                     G
Or some good-looking Joe
                    F
On their arms some girls want
                C  G
A sweet talkin' Romeo
                 C
Well around here baby 
                                  G
I've learned you get what you can get
                              F
So if you're rough enough for love 
          C       G        C
Honey I'm tougher than the rest
C                 Am 
Yeah the road is dark
F                     C
And it's a thin thin line
                  F
But I want you to know
                     G  C 
I'll walk it for you anytime
                 Am
Maybe your other girlfriends
                  C 
Couldn't pass the test
                                   F
Well if you're rough and ready for love
          C       G        C
Honey I'm tougher than the rest

C
Well it ain't no secret 
                           G
I've been around a time or two
                   F
Well I don't know baby
              C          G
Maybe you've been around too
                    C
But there's another dance baby
                            G
All you've got to do is say yes
G                                 F
And if you're rough and ready for love
          C       G        C     
Honey I'm tougher than the rest
C                              F 
And if you're rough enough for love
       C          G        C
Honey I'm tougher than the rest
