C F
VERSE 1: well every night you drag me where the bright lights are found
G C
there ain't know way you're slowin' me down
C F
i'm about as helpless as a leapin' ligale
G C
and it looks like i've got a tiger by the tail
REPEAT Chorus
SOLO ( follow music from Chorus)

VERSE 2: i thought the day i met you you were neat as a lamb
G C
just the kind that bit my dreams and plans
C F
now the pase that we've been livin' takes the wind from my sails
G C
and it looks like i've got a tiger by the tail
REPEAT Chorus
