Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (A major)
(D major)
Verse 1
(D major) I took a job away from home
to make my income grow (G major)
Cause my (A major) baby wouldn't go with me,
I thought I'd take it slow
(D major) I waited for her mood to change,
I wrote till I got tired (G major)
Now I'm (A major) wondering what goes on
when the rooster leaves the yard (D major)
A (G major) rooster is the king,
on his yard (D major) he sets the pace
I (E major) go back and run mine,
but I'm afraid (A major) I've been replaced
My baby (D major) writes to me,
but her words are cold and (G major) hard
Now I'm (A major) wonderin' what goes on
when the rooster leaves the yard (D major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
I do my job, or should I say,
I do it halfway right (G major)
My mind (A major) is on my baby
and where she goes every night (D major)
She used to haunt me that,
on my roost when she got tired (G major)
Now I'm (A major) wondering what goes on
when the rooster leaves the yard (D major)
The (G major) rooster is the king,
on his yard (D major) he sets the pace
I (E major) go back and run mine,
but I'm afraid (A major) I've been replaced
My baby (D major) writes to me,
but her words are cold and (G major) hard
Now I'm (A major) wondering what goes on
when the rooster leaves the yard (D major)
Yes, I'm (A major) wondering what goes on
when the rooster leaves the yard (D major) (A major) (D major) you
