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

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

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

    G       D
