Intro D7D7
D7D7 E minorEm
We were drivin through West Texas
D MajorD C majorC
The land of beef and pork
D MajorD E minorEm
Where they tend the hides of leather
D MajorD C majorC
We wear back in New York
D MajorD E minorEm
In a pasture, along a roadside
D MajorD C majorC
Behind a brokedown shack
D MajorD E minorEm
On a dusky side of evening
D MajorD C majorC
We saw a figure dressed in black
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
And we don't mean to sound like we're trippin
A7A7
But we swear to God
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
We saw Lou Reed cow tippin
G+G
Cow tippin
D MajorD E minorEm
Hey Lou, "Is that you?"
D MajorD C majorC
She said as we pulled to the shoulder
D MajorD E minorEm
He just said, "Go screw."
D MajorD C majorC
And then he turned and tipped one over
D MajorD E minorEm
Under a spitshine Western sky
D MajorD C majorC
The color of blue varnish
D MajorD E minorEm
Hey it's like Fellini
D MajorD C majorC
Actually I'm thinkin more like Jim Jarmusch
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
And we can't say how much we've been sippin
A7A7
But we swear to God
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
We saw Lou Reed cow tippin

I got cops on the cell
B7B7 C majorC
I said I got a little story to tell
A7A7
Lou Reed is in the cow pen
D MajorD
They said, Oh no! Not again!
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
And we hope our perceptions isn't slippin
A7A7
But we swear to God
