I've Got a Tiger by the Tail
recorded by Buck Owens
written by Harlan Howard and Buck Owens
 
C C7 F
I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see
G7 C G7
I won't be much when you get through with me
C C7 F
Well I'm a losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale
G7 C
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

F
Well I thought the day I met you were meek as a lamb
G7 C
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
F
Now the pace we're living takes the wind from my sails
G7 C
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

repeat #1
F
Well every night you drag me where the bright lights are found
G7 C
There ain't no way to slow you down
C F
I'm about as helpless as a leaf in a gale
G7 C
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

repeat #1
