Strong Enough To Bend
By Tanya Tucker

Capo 4

Intro chords:
E  B   E   B   A  B  E

          E    B          E        B
There's a tree out in the backyard
     A              B             E     B
That never has been broken by the wind
        E      B          E         B
And the reason it’s still standing
       A     B          E
It was strong enough to bend


For years, we have stayed together
As lovers and as friends
What we have will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend

Bridge
     F#
When you say something that you can't take back
A
Big wind blows and you hear a little crack
     F#
When you say "Hey well I might be wrong"
        B                           A
You can sway with the wind till the storm is gone
Gm                          F#m
Sway with the wind till the storm is gone

Verse 3
Like a tree out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
Our love will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend


Bridge
When you start thinkin' that you know it all
Big wind blows and a branch will fall
When you say "Hey this job takes two"
We can sway with the wind till the skies turn blue
Sway with the wind till the skies turn blue


Like a tree out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
Our love will last forever if we're strong enough to bend
Our love will last forever if we're strong enough to bend
