Reba McEntire - For Herself
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C majorC FF C majorC FF
C majorC G+G FF
Uncle Slim had let her know she couldn't ride that horse
C majorC FF Csus4-F C majorC
He was the one that was only meant for men
Dm7Dm7
She waited 'round 'til way after dark
F minorFm
Rode that horse with all her heart
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And in the night how she rode
CHORUS:
FF C majorC E minorEm FF
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
FF C majorC
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7Dm7 C majorC
This is how she has to live her life
FF G+G C majorC FF C majorC FF
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
C majorC G+G FF
Mama and daddy told her from the start he was no good
C majorC FF Csus4-F C majorC
They'd seen how he treated the other girls
Dm7Dm7
She waited around till the sun went down
F minorFm
Slipped out of the house not making a sound
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And in the night, oh, how they drove
CHORUS:
FF C majorC E minorEm FF
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
FF C majorC
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7Dm7 C majorC
This is how she has to live her life
FF G+G C majorC
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
BRIDGE:
A minorAm E minorEm
It was fifteen years to the day
FF DmDm FF
He became a stranger in her eyes
A minorAm E minorEm
In the coldest words of anger
Dm7Dm7 G+G
He said without me you won't survive
N.C. C majorC G+G FF
There's a suitcase in the closet she had packed six months ago
C majorC FF Csus4-F C majorC
She don't leave a note that's not her style
Dm7Dm7
So she waited around till way after dark
F minorFm
Left that man who broke her heart
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
Now she's gone, oh, she's gone
CHORUS:
FF C majorC E minorEm FF
Somehow she always knew she had the strength inside
C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
And even if she fell, she'd survive
FF C majorC
In spite of all the tears she may cry
Dm7Dm7 C majorC
This is how she has to live her life
FF G+G C majorC FF
As hard as it may be, she has to find out for herself
G+G C majorC FF C majorC FF C majorC
