I've got a tiger by the tail, it's [A] plain to see
I [B] won't be much when you get [E] through with [B] me
Well I'm a [E]-losing weight and I'm turning [A] mighty pale
[B] Looks like I've got a tiger by [E] the tail
Well I thought the day I met [A] you, you were neat as a lamb
[B] Just the kind to fit my [E] dreams and [B] plans
Now [E] the pace we're living [A] takes the wind from my sails
[B] And it looks like I've got a tiger by [E] the tail
I've got a tiger by the tail, it's [A] plain to see
I [B] won't be much when you get [E] through with [B] me

Well every night you drag me [A] where the bright lights are filmed
[B] There ain't no way to [E] slow you down

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the [E] tail
I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
