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
