VerseGGAmEm
Happiness, hurt like a train on a track
GGAmEm
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
G
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
AmEm
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
G
With every bubble she sank with a drink
AmEm
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
ChorusG
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are done
AmEm
The horses are coming so you better run
VerseG
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
G
Run for your children and your sisters and brothers
GAm
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Em
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
ChorusG
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are done
GAmEmG

GGGAmEm
And I never wanted anything from you
GG
Except everything you had
GAmEm
And what was left after that too. oh.
GGAmEm
Happiness it hurt like a bullet in the head
G
Stuck from a great height
GAmEm
By someone who should know better than that
ChorusG
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are gone
GAm
Can you hear the horses
EmG
Cuz here they come
