Chorus:
        E
I am a tou-tou-tou tough, tough guy
   A
I tell no tales, I do no lie
        E
I am a tou-tou-tou-tou tough, tough guy
      A
Halo round my head to tough to die

 D       A             D          A
Main attraction in a freak side show
 C           G                  C        G
Down in the basement where the cobwebs grow
       D    A        D       A
On my last leg just getting by
      C        G    C            G
Halo round my read too tough to die

Rainy days rain cool wine
I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine
Hot sweat on my face
I feel like going out someplace

 A
Too tough to die
 G
Too tough to die
Too tough to die
Too tough to die

Chorus - x2

Up late light my chocolate sweet
Down at the gym where the muscle boys meet
I am very nice guy very sincere
In real good shape I have no fear

At the concert when the band comes on
I am in the ring where I belong
On my last leg just gettin' by
Halo round my head too tough to die

Chorus - x2
