Key: D
Chorus:
I’ve got a Dtiger by the tail it’s plain to Gsee I A7won’t be much when you get Dthrough with A7me Well I’m a Dlosing weight and I’m D7turning mighty Gpale A7 Looks like I’ve got a tiger by the DtailVerse:
Well I Dthought the day I met you were Gmeek as a lamb A7Just the kind to fit my Ddreams and plans Now the Dpace we’re living takes the Gwind from my sails And it A7looks like I’ve got a tiger by the DtailChorus:
I’ve got a Dtiger by the tail it’s plain to Gsee I A7won’t be much when you get Dthrough with A7me Well I’m a Dlosing weight and I’m D7turning mighty Gpale A7 Looks like I’ve got a tiger by the DtailVerse:
Well every Dnight you drag me where the Gbright lights are found A7There ain’t no way to slow you Ddown DI’m about as helpless as a Gleaf in a gale And it A7looks like I’ve got a tiger by the DtailChorus:
I’ve got a Dtiger by the tail it’s plain to Gsee I A7won’t be much when you get Dthrough with A7me Well I’m a Dlosing weight and I’m D7turning mighty Gpale A7 Looks like I’ve got a tiger by the Dtail
