[Verse 1]
[Intro] - D
Am C G D
You went from moonlighting
D Am C G D
but you came out fighting
D Am
I saw you larger than life
G
throwing your knife
D Am G D
gone into deep hiding
Am C G D
But you were so charming
D Am C G D
that it was disarming
Am
I wondered what was behind
G
having to find
D Am G D
an army that keeps arming
[Chorus]
Em G
Oh, Slip and roll, honey
D A
stick the jab, kid
Em G
don‘t just trade punches
D A
like your father did
C/G G
cause this playing the odds
D A
isn’t fooling the gods
C G D
so slip and roll til you’re willing to take the hit
[Verse 2]
Am C G D
So we just keep hoping
Am C G D
although the deck’s sloping
Am
you’re thinking, Throw me a bone
G
or leave me alone
D Am G D
to do what they call coping
[Chorus]
Em G
Oh, Slip and roll, honey
D A
stick the jab, kid
Em G
don‘t just trade punches
D A
like your father did
C/G G
cause this playing the odds
D A
isn’t fooling the gods
C G D
so slip and roll til you’re willing to take the hit
[Bridge]
C Em C Am
And you can take it, take it, take it, take it
G D Am Em
we’ve all seen that guy take it on the chin
C Em C Am
oh, take it, take it, I know you can take it
G D Am D
but when will you take something in
[Solo]
Am C G D (x2)
Am G D (x2)
[Chorus]

Oh, Slip and roll, honey
D A
stick the jab, kid
Em G
don‘t just trade punches
D A
like your father did
C/G G
cause this playing the odds
D A
isn’t fooling the gods
C G D
so slip and roll til you’re willing to take the hit
[Bridge]
C Em C Am
And you can take it, take it, take it, take it
G D Am Em
we’ve all seen that guy take it on the chin
C Em C Am
oh, take it, take it, I know you can take it
G D Am
but when will you take something in
G D Am D
but when will you take something in
