As recorded by Willie Nelson (From the 2023 Album I DON'T KNOW A THING ABOUT LOVE: THE SONGS OF HARLAN HOWARD) [Intro] C F G C [Chorus]
C                                           F
I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see

  G7                                      C G
I won't be much when you get through with me

        C                                    F
And I'm losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale

       G7                                 C
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[Verse 1]
C                                     F
I thought the day I met you, you were meek as a lamb

G                                  C     G
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans

C                                   F
Now the pace we're living takes the wind from my sails

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

  G7                                      C G
I won't be much when you get through with me

        C                                    F
And I'm losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale

        G7                                 C
God, it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[Guitar Solo] C F G7 C G C F G7 C [Verse 2]
C                                      F
Wеll every night you drag me whеre the bright lights are found

G7                             C    G
There ain't no way to slow you down

C                             F
I'm as 'bout as helpless as a leaf in a gale

       G7                                 C
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[Out-Chorus]
C                                           F
I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see

  G7                                      C G
I won't be much when you get through with me

        C                                    F
And I'm losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale

       G7                                 C
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
