Take it on the Chin - William Elliott Whitmore
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
Great song. This can be used for banjo or guitar. Oo the album he plays it on the banjo
sounds good on both. Same chords.
Intro:
Verse:
Well I don't want you to know the pain I've known.
A man should not have to walk his row alone.
Of all the things in life, count on one.
I'll always be behind you son.
Pre-Chorus:
He said life is a gamble and before you throw them dice,
if it's more than you can handle please take this advice.
Chorus:
He said stand your ground and don't back down,
that's the only way to win.
When life throws a punch son, you've got to take it on the chin.
Wooo ooo oooo oooo.
Verse:
Well I don't want you to see the things I saw.
This old world can be so cruel after all.
When all is said and all is done,
I'll always be behind you son.
Pre-Chorus:
Well he said life is a battle and it ain't even fair
But if you stay up in your saddle, you're already half-way there.
Chorus:
He said stand your ground and don't back down, that's the only way to win.
When life throws a punch son, you've got to take it on the chin (2x at end)
Woo oooo oooo oooo.
