Intro:  G5 

    G5                 C5            G5
I'm used to havin' my breakfast in bed 
                               C5         G5
Never have to lift a finger to butter my bread 
          C5
I keep my baby satisfied if you know what I mean 
           G5                           C5        G5
'Cause she told me I'm walkin' talkin' love machine 
        D5 
Lord, I got the self assurance of a king on a throne 
          N.C.               
Cause she told me that she'd love me 'til the cows came home 
       C5
   The cows came home 
       D5
   The cows came home 
     D5
   I heard somethin' mooin' 

   Turned around and she was gone 
   N.C.                   C5         G5
   Lord have mercy, the cows came home 
          G5                        C5           G5
The whole herd showed up when they heard she'd gone 
                             C5       G5
But I guess it's better than bein' alone 
         C5
Well the slammin' of the door is like a pie in the face 
      G5                       C5     G5
But I got enough milk for the human race 
         D5
I didn't have a clue that there was anything wrong 
           N.C.
'Cause she told me that she'd love me 'til the cows came home 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
C5
I didn't see the writing on the wall 
D5
Missed the invitation to the bovine ball 
C5
I didn't hear no cowbells ringin' 
      D5                               N.C.
Gonna have to face the music that the fat lady's singin' 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
N.C.                   C5         G5
Lord have mercy, the cows came home
