Capo on 5
Intro: D x5, Em x1, Bm x2
D Em Bm
Happiness hit her like a train on a track...
D Em Bm
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back...
D
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
D Em Bm
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
D
With every bubble she sank with her drink
D Em Bm
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
D
The dog days are over
D
The dog days are done
D Em
The horses are coming
Bm
So you better run
D
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
D
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
D Em
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
Bm
You cant carry it with you if you want to survive
D
The dog days are over
D
The dog days are done
D Em
Can you hear the horses?
Bm D
'Cause here they come
(silence)
(quiet)
D D D Em Bm
And I never wanted anything from you
D D D Em Bm
Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
(loud again)
D D D Em Bm
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the head.....
D D D Em Bm
Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that
D
The dog days are over
D
The dog days are done
D Em
Can you hear the horses?
Bm D
'Cause here they come
(Percussion interlude)
D
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
D
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
D Em
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
Bm
You cant carry it with you if you want to survive
D
The dog days are over

The dog days are done
D Em
Can you hear the horses?

'Cause here they come
D
The dog days are over
