F Bb C F
You can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em.
Bb C Dm
There's somethin' irresistable-ish about 'em.

Bb
We grin and bear it 'cause the nights are long.
F C F
I hope that somethin' better comes along.


F Bb C F
It's no good complainin' and pointless to holler.
Bb C Dm
If she's a beauty she'll get underneath your collar.
Bb
She made a monkey out of old King Kong,
F C F
I hope that somethin' better comes along.


Em A D B
Ah, but what could be better than a saucy Irish setter
Em A D
When puppy love comes on strong?
G# C#
Or a collie that's classy, a laddie needs a lassie,
F# F G
A lover and wife gives you a new leash on life.


F Bb C F
I don't mean to scare ya, my friend, but I betcha
Bb C Dm
Come "Father's Day", the litter bug is gonna getcha
Bb
The urge is righteous, but the face is wrong.
F C F
I hope that somethin' better comes along.


Em A
Still, it's fun when they're fetching,
D B
And agree to see an etching
Em A D
That you keep at your lily pad.
G# C#
There is no solution, it's part of evolution,
F#
The pitter patter of soles,
F G
The little feet of tadpoles.

F Bb C F
There's no limitation to mixin' and matchin'
Bb C Dm
Some get an itchin' for a critter they've been scratchin'.
Bb
A skunk was badgered the results were strong.
F C
I hope that somethin' better,
F C
I hope that somethin' better,
F C Bb A G F
I hope that somethin' better comes along.
