(Intro.)

(Verse)
She (G)was the last one in this town we would've thought would snap
(G)Guess he finally found the straw that broke the camel's back
Now (C) she's lightin' camels and sippin' chardonnay
She's (G)dressed up to the (F)nines and the (C/E)cops are on their (G/D)way
She (G/D)reapplies her lipstick, lights are flashin' red and blue
They (C)ask her why she did, she said, "Honey, you would too"

(Chorus)
(Em) Lord help the (D)man who (C) don't know how (G)strong
(Em) A woman (D)can be when some-(C)body does her (G)wrong
(Em) He lit that (D)fuse in her (C)bed with that (G)blonde
Now the (D)house is up in flames, his clothes are on the lawn
Thought she was (D)fragile like a flower, but she's fragile like a bomb
(NC)Yeah, he set her off

(Solo)

(Verse)
(G)In the morning she was right there on the front page
The (G)headline read in black and white, "An angel falls from grace"
They (C)took her to the county and dressed her up in orange
Then (G)brought her cheatin' husband in to testify in court
He (D)cried and said, "She's crazy," and showed off all his burns
But (C)it was clear as kerosene he got what he deserved

(Chorus)
(Em) Lord help the (D)man who (C) don't know how (G)strong
(Em) A woman (D)can be when some-(C)body does her (G)wrong
(Em) He lit that (D)fuse in her (C)bed with that (G)blonde
Now the (D)house is up in flames, his clothes are on the lawn
Thought she was (D)fragile like a flower, but she's fragile like a bomb
(NC)Yeah, he set her off

(Solo) 
|(G) / (F) / |(G)(F)(Em)(G/D)
 
(Bridge)
She (D)wore a guilty smile when they brought her to the judge (C)
They (G)slapped her wrist and chalked it up to the things we do for love

(Solo)
|(Em) / (D) / |(C) / (G) / |
|(Em) / (D) / |(C) / (G) / |
|(Em) / (D) / |(C) / (G) / |

(Chorus)
(Em) Lord help the (D)man who (C) don’t know how (G)strong
(Em) A woman (D)can be when some-(C)body does her (G)wrong
(Em) He lit that (D)fuse in her (C)bed with that (G)blonde
Now the (D)house is up in flames, his clothes are on the lawn
Thought she was (D)fragile like a flower, but she's fragile like a bomb
(NC)Yeah, he set her off - - - - -
