Roller Derby Queen - Chords
By Jim Croce

[Verse]
E7
Gonna tell you a story you won't believe
A7
But I fell in love last Friday evening
B7 A7 E7
With a girl I saw on the bar room TV screen
E7
Well I was just getting ready to grab my hat
A7
When she caught my eye and I put it back
B7 A7 E7
And I ordered myself a couple more shots and beers
[CHORUS:]
E7 G7 A7 E7
The night that I fell in love with a Roller Derby Queen
(round and round, oh round and round)
G7 A7 B7
Meanest hunk of women that anybody ever seen
Down in the arena
[Verse]
E7
She was five-foot-six and two-fifteen
A7
A bleached-blond mama with a streak of mean
B7 A7 E7
She knew how to knuckle and she knew how to scuffle and fight
E7
The roller derby program said
A7
That she was built like a 'frigerator with a head
B7 A7 E7
Her fans called her Tuffy But all her friends called her Spike
[CHORUS]
(BRIDGE)
E7
Round and round, go round and round
A7
Round and round, go round and round
B7 A7 E7
[Verse]
E7
Well I could not help it but I fell in love
A7
With this heavy duty women I've been speaking of
B7 A7 E7
Things were kinda bad till the day she skated into my life
E7
Well she might be nasty, and she might be fat
A7
But I never met a person who would tell her that
B7 A7 E7
She's my big blonde bomber, my heavy-handed hackensack mama
(CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
