Intro: [G] [G] [G] [G] [G] [Am] [Em] [Em]
[G]Happiness hit her like a train on a [Am]track [Em]
[G]Coming towards her, stuck still, no turning [Am]back [Em]
She [G]hid around corners and she hid under beds
She [G]killed it with [Am]kisses and [Em]from it she fled
With [G]every bubble she sank with a drink
And [G]washed it [Am]away down the [Em]kitchen sink
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
The [G]horses are [Am]coming
So [Em]you better run
Run [G]fast for your mother, run fast for your father
[G]Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
[G]Leave all your love and your [Am]longing behind
You can't [Em]carry it with you if you want to survive
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
[G]Can you hear the [Am]horses?
'Cause [Em]here they come [G]
And [G]I [G]never wanted [G]anything [Am]from [Em]you
Except [G]for [G]everything you had
and [G]what was left [Am]after that [Em]too, oh
[G]Happiness hit [G]her like a bullet in the [G]back [Am] [Em]
[G]Struck from a great height [G]by
someone who [G]should know [Am]better than [Em]that
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
[G]Can you hear the [Am]horses?
'Cause [Em]here they come [G]
Run [G]fast for your mother, run fast for your father
[G]Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
[G]Leave all your love and your [Am]longing behind
You can't [Em]carry it with you if you want to survive
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
[G]Can you hear the [Am]horses?
'Cause [Em]here they come
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
The [G]horses are [Am]coming
So [Em]you better run
The [G]dog days are over
The [G]dog days are done
The [G]horses are [Am]coming
So [Em]you better run [G]
