Stand By Your Man

F C F C F

[Verse 1]
F                          C
Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Gm              C                 F
Giving all your love to just one man.
Bb
You'll have bad times
F             Bb    F
And he'll have good times,
Gm           Dm                       C
Doin' things that you don't understand

[Verse 2]
F                          C
But if you love him you'll forgive him,
Gm               C                F
Even though he's hard to understand
Bb                  F     Bb
And if you love him oh be proud of him,
F            C7                F  Bb  F C
'Cause after all he's just a man

[Chorus 1]
F             A7
Stand by your man,
Bb
Give him two arms to cling to,
F             Dm
And something warm to come to
Gm               C
When nights are cold and lonely

[Chorus 2]
F             A7
Stand by your man,
Bb           Gm
And show the world you love him
F            C7                A7  Dm
Keep giving all the love you can
Gm Bb  C7        F  Bb  F Bb
 Stand by your man

F             A7
Stand by your man,
Bb                     F
And show the world you love him
F  Dm           C7                A7  D7
Keep giving all the love you can
Gm7  Bb C7        F  Bb  F
 Stand by your man
