[Verse]
N.C.          G
It's Saturday night
                         D
You're all dressed up in blue
                     C
I been watching you awhile
                  G           D
Maybe you've been watching me too
                G
So somebody ran out
                           D
Left somebody's heart in a mess
                      C
If you're looking for love
         G         D        G
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
 
[Verse]
N.C.                       G
Some girls want a handsome Dan
                     D
Or some good-looking Joe
                    C
Some girls on their arm
                     G   D
Want a sweet-talking Romeo
                   G
Well, around here, baby
                                D
I learned, you get what you can get
                        C
And if you're ready for love
         G         D        G
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
 
[Bridge]
N.C.        Em     C
The road is dark
                      G
And it's a thin, thin line
                  C
But I want you to know
                    D   G
I'll walk it for you anytime
                     Em        C
Maybe your other girlfriends
                  G
Couldn't pass the test
                                    C
Well, if you're rough and ready for love
         G         D        G
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
 
[Instrumental]
G      D      C    G  D
Em    C    G
G    C    G  D  G
 
[Verse]
N.C.              G
Well, it ain't no secret
                           D
I've been around a time or two
                  C
And I don't know, baby
             G           D
Maybe you've been around too
                     G
But there's one more dance
                         D
All you gotta do is say 'yes'
                             C
'Cause if you're looking for love
         G         D        G
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest
                              C
If you're rough and ready for love
         G         D        G
Honey, I'm tougher than the rest

For anyone else having a hard time figuring out Shawn's playing. I'm pretty sure she is in CGDGBD-tuning (E -3, A -2, e -2), with capo on 4th. Using these chords: C-G-D-g-B-d G: x-0-0-0-0-0 C: x-0-2-0-1-0 (altering x-0-0-0-1-0) D: 2-2-0-2(0-0)(altering 2-2-0-0-0-0) Em: 4-4-4-0(0-0)
