                 Eb           Eb7                 Ab
I'VE.. GOT.. A.. TIGER BY THE TAIL, IT'S PLAIN TO SEE.
  Bb7                                   Eb 
I WON'T BE MUCH WHEN YOU GET THRU' WITH ME..
Bb7         Eb                  Eb7            Ab

LOOKS LIKE I'VE GOT A TI-GER BY THE TAIL.
 
 
        Eb                Eb7               Ab  
WELL, I THOUGHT THE DAY I MET YOU, YOU WERE MEEK AS A LAMB
Bb7                                Eb 
JUST THE KIND TO FIT MY DREAMS AND PLANS
Bb7                 Eb7              Ab
NOW, THE PACE WE'RE LIVIN' TAKES THE WIND FROM MY SAIL
       Bb7                                Eb   
AND IT LOOKS LIKE I'VE GOT A TIGER BY THE TAIL.

      Eb              Eb7               Ab      
WELL, EVERY NIGHT YOU DRAG ME WHERE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE FOUND
Bb7                            Eb          
THERE AIN'T NO WAY TO SLOW YOU DOWN
Bb7            Eb7           Ab           
I'M AS-BOUT AS HELPLESS AS A LEAF IN A GALE
        Bb7                               Eb
AND IT LOOKS LIKE I'VE GOT A TIGER BY THE TAIL
