[Em] Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather [Bm] boots
Like the blue-collar, red-dirt atti[C] tude Like a .38 made out of brass
[G] Tough like the stuff in your [D] grandpa's glass
[Em] Life's gonna do what it does [Bm] Sure as the good Lord's up above
I'm [C] cut like a diamond shinin' in the [G] rough [B7] ...[Em] Tough Tough
[Em] Come on, take a ride with me Like the [Bm] 808s beatin' in the trunk in Atlanta, it was [C] tough
It was kinda hard for me [G] Crawlin' through the mud, I couldn't [D] find love, then we came [Em] up
Look at what we are, baby [Bm] Standin' through the storm, still shinin' like a diamond in the [C] rough
Still shinin', and that's [G] hard If you [D] ever lost someone that you [Em] love
Through the pain, gotta show 'em, give 'em [Bm] light
Still family if you're wrong or you're [C] right No matter, we together
It's not [G] somethin' that you wanna do, it's [D] just somethin' you goin' through
[Em] Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather [Bm] boots
Like the blue-collar, red-dirt atti[C] tude Like a .38 made out of brass
[G] Tough like the stuff in your [D] grandpa's glass

I'm [C] cut like a diamond shinin' in the [G] rough [B7] ...[Em] Tough Hard
[Em] Tell me how it's hard for you Like a [Bm] nickel on strings and your good old Gibson gui[C] tar
Tell me what it feel like Like the [G] smoke and the drawl [D] every now in the way you talk [Em] slow
Oh, yeah, yeah Like the [Bm] songs that your mama sing to you
And the [C] way that it makes you tell the truth
If you [G] come from where you come, [D] then you were born [Em] tough
[G] Here, [D] say where you come [C] from It's [Em] not what you wanna do, [D] it's what you're gonna do
[G] Now, [D] it's no place to [C] run If [Em] that's what you're gonna do, [D] what am I gonna do? (Tough)
[Em] Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather [Bm] boots
Like the blue-collar, red-dirt atti[C] tude Like a .38 made out of brass
