Take It Like A Man

Gene Pitney


Tom: Dm

G              F
Take it like a man
      G          F
Don’t cry, don’t cry
G              F
Take it like a man
          G       F
Hold your head up high
C                   F              C        Cm
Sure she broke your heart when she said goodbye
G          D              G 
You got to take it like a man

Get up on your feet
Is way past dawn
I said get up on your feet
Come on, come on
Everything’s the same, except she’s gone
But you, you got to take it like a man

       B                  Dm   
You’re gonna be fine just don’t think about her
    A           A7    C   
The sun’s gonna shine with or without her

It’s only gonna hurt
For a little, little while
Go on and change your shirt
And put on a smile
Don’t say that you can’t cause you can
Come on, buddy, take it like a man
