Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Gir[Gsus4]l, I've g[C]ot a
[Gsus4]little message for [C]you[G]
I want you to take heed
[C]Listen [Gsus4]it says a[G]

[Verse 2]
Men, they don't [C]cry to drive your eyes
Or to make a [G]tear drop, oh [C]no[Am][C]
And [G]I am not weepin' to
[C]keep from sleepin'
Girl, I wish you [G]could stop

[Verse 3]
[Am]I was your man,
a mountain of rag
[G]You came along to change
[D]me inside
[C]There's not a man,
ain't no wired up toy
But I am [Dsus4]still hangin' around
[D]for you to enjoy

[Verse 4]
I can't [G]take it like a man
I can't [D]take it like a man
I am [F]headin' nowhere, [Em]just [E]as fast as I can
I can't [Am]take it like a man
I can't [F]make it like a man
I [Bdim]need you[Bm]r lovin' in the [C]palm
of [F]my hand
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]
Hearts don't break,
[C]to take the ache
That they're go[G]ing through, [C]oh no
If [G]you're mistaken
[C]It might weaken [G]you because I love you
[C]Oh

[Verse 6]
[Am]love, if you care
Won't you [G]please hear it back
Keep me on the right track
[C]Roll me some rope,
don't let me drown
[Dsus4]Please ha[D]ve a heart,
this is my third time down

[Verse 7]
I can't [G]take it like a man
I can't [D]take it like a man
I am [F]gettin' nowhere, [E]just as fast as I can
I can't [Am]take it like a man
I can't [F]make it like a man
[Bdim]I need y[Bm]our lovin' in the
[C]palm of [F]my [D]hand

[Verse 8]
I can't [G]take it, won't you help me [D]make it?
I wanna [F]take it, I can't [E]take it
Oh, I can't [Am]take it like a man
I can't [F]make it like a man
[Bm]I need your lovin' in the
[C]palm of my [D]hand

[Verse 9]
I can't [G]take it
[G]Oh, I can't take it
