The Cows Came Home - Joe Diffie
[Verse 1]
[D] I'm used to havin' my [G] breakfast [F] in [D] bed
[D] Never have to lift a finger to [G] butter [F] my [D] bread
[G] I keep my baby satisfied if you know what I mean
[D] 'Cause she told me I'm walkin' [G] talkin' [F] love [D] machine
[A] Lord, I got the self assurance of a king on a throne
[D] Cause she told me that she'd love me 'til the cows came home
|[Chorus]
|[G] The cows came home
|[A] The cows came home
|[G] I heard somethin' mooin' [A] turned around and she was gone
|[D] Lord have mercy, the [G] cows [F] came [D] home
[Verse 2]
[D] The whole herd showed up when they [G] heard [F] she'd [D] gone
[D] But I guess it's better [G] than [F] bein' [D] alone
[G] Well the slammin' of the door is like a pie in the face
[D] But I got enough milk for [G] the [F] human [D] race
[A] I didn't have to clue that there was anything wrong
[D] 'Cause she told me that she'd love me 'til the cows came home
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[G] I didn't see the writing on the wall
[A] Missed the invitation to the bovine ball
[G] I didn't hear no cowbells ringin'
[A] Gonna have to face the music that the fat lady's singin'
[Instrumental]
[G] [D] [G] [A]
|[Chorus]
|[G] The cows came home
|[A] The cows came home
|[G] I heard somethin' mooin' [A] turned around and she was gone
|[D] Lord have mercy, the [G] cows [F] came [D] home
Outro:
[D] Lord have mercy, the [G] cows [F] came [D] home
