Content
"Tell Her" is a country pop ballad. In it, the male narrator addresses a male friend of his who is "lookin' for a friend" to help him. In the first verse, the narrator discovers that his friend is having difficulty in his relationship ("So you say your love's about to end / You say you can't take no more, she's out the door"). The narrator then asks whether the friend was "furious" or if he told his loved one that he loves her.

Co-writer Kwesi B. told The Tennessean that the idea came from a songwriting session with Craig Wiseman. At the time, Kwesi had just had an argument with his wife but reconciled with her the next day. He presented his feelings to Wiseman during the session. The two recorded a demo which was sent to producer Dann Huff, who then gave the song to Lonestar, for whom he was producing at the time. The song is in G major with a main chord pattern of Em-Am-C-G.

"Tell Her" reached its peak of number one on the Billboard country charts for the week of February 3, 2001. It held the position for two weeks. Like "What About Now" before it, the song also reached the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 39. It was the fourth consecutive number one song from the album.
