                      D#
I don't know what to think
G#                        D#   A#
The word cut through the day
                      D#
The doctor said it's cancer
G#                     D#   A#
And the baby's on the way
                   D#
Life changes in a blink
G#               D#  A#
Decisions to be made
                     D#
They say radio's the answer
G#                          D#   A#
And that both lives can be saved

G#
Points for timing, it could not get worse
          D#                   A#
What the hell are we going to do?
     G#
But you're the type to defeat the hardest obstacles
D#               A#
Put in front of you

Chorus:
D#           G#               D# 
You are the toughest in the room
                 A#                D#
And I know that love will get us through
              G#            D#                 A#
And life will overcome the pain that grows in you
D#                  G#               D# 
'Cause you are the toughest in the room
                A#
You showed me strength I never knew
D#           G#                    D#            A#
When love is on our side there's just no way to lose
        G#
But I still can't help but break down

Still waiting on a call
Then an action plan is made
In the middle of a court case
Shows what really matters, babe
The specialist is enough
En route, we'll choose our child's name
'Cause we had enough surprises
For a lifetime, wouldn't you say?

The word he said, it had the utmost power
To change the world to blue
But you're the type to defeat the hardest obstacles
Put in front of you

Chorus:
You are the toughest in the room
And I know that love will get us through
And life will overcome the pain that grows in you
'Cause you are the toughest in the room
You show me strength I never knew
When love is on our side,
there's just no way to lose
But I still can't help but break down

G#   D#     A#
All night long
Cm           A#
Tossing and turning and begging
G#     D#   A#
Please hold on

Chorus:
'Cause you are the toughest in the room
I know that love will get us through
And life will overcome the pain that grows in you
'Cause you are the toughest in the room
You show me strength I never knew
When love is on our side,
there's just no way to lose
But I still can't help but break down
