Lou Reed

[Intro] D7

D7                          Em
We were drivin through West Texas
D                    C
The land of beef and pork
D                          Em
Where they tend the hides of leather
D                   C
We wear back in New York
D                     Em
In a pasture, along a roadside
D                  C
Behind a brokedown shack
D                  Em
On a dusky side of evening
D                          C
We saw a figure dressed in black

G                    C                 G     Em
And we don't mean to sound like we're trippin
       A7
But we swear to God
   C        D       Em      D
We saw Lou Reed cow tippin
     G
Cow tippin

D                 Em
Hey Lou, "Is that you?"
D                            C
She said as we pulled to the shoulder
D                   Em
He just said, "Go screw."
D                                 C
And then he turned and tipped one over
D                          Em
Under a spitshine Western sky
D                 C
The color of blue varnish
D                 Em
Hey it's like Fellini
D                                  C
Actually I'm thinkin more like Jim Jarmusch

       G              C               G     Em
And we can't say how much we've been sippin
       A7
But we swear to God
   C       D        Em      D
We saw Lou Reed cow tippin
    G
Cow tippin

B7                C
I got cops on the cell
B7                              C
I said I got a little story to tell
A7
Lou Reed is in the cow pen
           D
They said, Oh no! Not again!

       G            C             G       Em
And we hope our perceptions isn't slippin
       A7
But we swear to God
   C       D        Em    D
We saw Lou Reed cow tippin
    G       D
Cow tippin
    G       D
Cow tippin
    G       D
Cow tippin
    G       D
Cow tippin
        G               D
You really think that was Lou Reed?
    G       D
Cow tippin
        G               D
I'm sure it was, he was wearing black Levis
    G       D
Cow tippin
        G               D
I thought he was a vegetarian
    G       D
Cow tippin
        G               D
He's just tippin them over, he wasn't eating them
    G       D
Cow tippin

Oh
    G       D
Cow tippin
