Well, Iīm    not the kind to kiss and tell
    E/B /                    B /                                                   
But     Iīve been seen with     Farrah.
     E                 B                      C#7            F#7                        
Iīve   never been with   anything less than a     nine,   so      fine.
      E                                                                     
Iīve    been on fire with Sally Fields
      B                                                                    
Going    past with a girl named Bo
     C#7                                    F#                                    
But      somehow they just donīt end up as      mine.


       F#                                                                   
Itīs a     death-defined life I live
E           B                                                                 
  I take my    chances
   G#m                         E                  B     F#                             
I     die for a living in the    movies and T. -    V 
        (F#)                                                                 
But the     hardest thing I ever do
    E                  B                                                     
Is    watch my leading    ladies
      C#7                                        F#7                              
Kiss      some other guys while Iīm bandaging my      knee./


Chorus:
        G#m                                                                  
I might     fall from a tall building
   F#       E7                                                                  
I     might     roll a brand new car
       B          F#/Bb          G#m                                                   
īCause    Iīm the         unknown      stuntman -
F#            E           F#          B                                                
   That made     Redford      such a     star. 
B - F#/Bb - G#m - F# - E - F# - B/ 


      B /                                                                    
Iīve     never spent much time in school, 
    E/B /                    B /                                                   
But         I taught ladies      plenty.
      E                  B              C#7               F#7                            
Itīs     true I hire my    body out for      pay,    hey      hey
      E                                                                      
Iīve    gotten burnt over Sheryl Teeks
      B                                                                     
Blown    up for Raquel Welsh
           C#7                                 F#          F#7                        
But when I      wind up in the hay, itīs only     hay. Hey      hey


Chorus:
        G#m                                                                   
I might      jump an open drawbridge
F#      E7                                                                       
   or      tarzan from a vine
        B           F#/Bb           G#m                                                  
īCause     Iīm the         unknown       stuntman -
F#             E            F#           B

A    morning dive with Jackie Smith,

But     in the end they never stay with    me./


Chorus:
