Roll With The Punches

• G

Capo: 3 

Intro: G Em G Em 


G         Em                    
Roll, roll  with the punches   (2x) 


            G 
That really hurt me 
       Em 
Like a fist to the face 
         G 
I wasn't ready 
      Em 
To be knocked out of place 
C 
Suddenly everything I was sure of 
   Am                              G        Em 
Is sinking below the depths of the surface 


         G 
It's unexpected,  
   Em 
it usually is 
              G 
When you're rejected 
   Em 
Or you take a hit 
C 
Suddenly everything's thrown in a spin 
   Am 
No time to grow a thicker skin 
C                              D 
What kind of situation am I in now? 


     G                           C 
When life tries to knock all the wind out of you 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 
   G                  C          
If all life offers is black and blue 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 


G Em G Em 


       G       Em 
Little weapons over the phone 
             G            Em 
They like to threaten the life that I know 
         C 
They say get over here and get into the ring 
    Am                    G        Em 
But I'm not really much a fighter 
        G        Em 
My mechanisms of defense are down 
     G           Em 
My resistance is out on the town 
C 
I was alarmed by your attack 
     Am 
This isn't a boxing match 
            C                        D 
But I'll be damned if I ever let you win 


 
     G                           C 
When life tries to knock all the wind out of you 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 
   G                  C          
If all life offers is black and blue 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 


     Bm              Em 
When all I want is a little stability 
     Bm               Em 
Some time without any bruises 
           C 
You go and tell me the things that I don't want to hear 
Am 
Putting your fist into my ears 
C 
Filling me up with the dread and the fear  
Am 
leaving you all in pieces 
C 
Suddenly everything's thrown in a spin 
   Am 
No time to grow a thicker skin 
C                              D 
What kind of situation am I in now? 



     G                           C 
When life tries to knock all the wind out of you 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 
   G                  C          
If all life offers is black and blue 
              Em                    D 
You've got to hold, hold, hold your head up high 
     G                           C 
When life tries to knock all the wind out of you 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 
   G                  C          
If all life offers is black and blue 
              Em              D 
You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches 


Outro: G Em G Em
