Capo 4


D
When God made woman I wonder sometimes
   D                                      G
If it was a flower he had in mind when he made her
  D
A touch as gentle as a butterfly
  D                                  G
A kiss so sweet it could stop time forever
Bm               A         D      G        
God gave man the chance to be the kind of strength a woman needs
Bm                A      D      Em    Em/F# G  
He was suppose to be the one to carry that  load


CHORUS:
    A         D     D/C#
But there she goes, Baby in her arms
D/B                         D/A     
World on her shoulders when her day starts
G                  G/F#
Working a job that don't pay much
    Em         Em/F#     G
but she thanks God it's enough
    A         D         D/C# 
And there she is on her own two feet
D/B                    D/A
He walked outbut she's still got dreams
G                      G/F#
Trys to laugh when she feels like crying
G                     G/F#                    
Nobody'd blame her if she stopped trying
    G                      G/F#      Em     D 
But she's got a heart that gives and gives
   G                   A          D 
So you tell me who the strong one is



Tonight's the first night in a while
She'll put on her makeup wearing a smile, she's going out
And everything was all planned out
but the fever that the baby's got now, it's all shot down
She gives up what she wants to do for what she has to, that's what a momma does
She'll be there like she always is when the sun comes up

Chorus


2nd 1/2 of Chorus:
              D         D/C#
And there she is on her own two feet
D/B                    D/A
He walked outbut she's still got dreams
G                      G/F#
Trys to laugh when she feels like crying
G                     G/F#                    
Nobody'd blame her if she stopped trying
    G                      G/F#      Em     D 
But she's got a heart that gives and gives
   G                   A          D 
So you tell me who the strong one is
