[Verse 1]
G                                         Am  Em
   Happiness hit her like a train on a track
G                                               Am  Em
   Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
        G                                         
   She hid around corners, and she hid under beds
       G              Am          Em         
   She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
        G                                  
   With every bubble, she sank with her drink
        G         Am           Em 
   And washed it away down the kitchen sink

[Chorus]

# pt. 1

       G
   The dog days are over, the dog days are done
       G           Am         Em
   The horses are coming, so you better run

# pt. 2
        G
   Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
   G
   Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
   G                              Am
   Leave all your love and your longing behind
              Em
   You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

# (pt. 1 alt.)
       G
   The dog days are over, the dog days are done
   G                 Am            Em
   Can you hear the horses, cause here they come

[Bridge]
       G G            G        Am    Em
   And I never wanted anything from you
          G     G  
   Except everything you had
       G             Am          Em
   And what was left after that too, oh

[Verse 2]
G                                         G Am Em
   Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
G
   Struck from a great height
                  G                 Am        Em
   By someone who should've known better than that
       G
   The dog days are over
       G
   The dog days are done
   G                Am           Em
   Can you hear the horses cause here they come

[Instrumental] x2
G, G
G - Am, Em

[Chorus]
        G
   Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
   G
   Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
   G                              Am
   Leave all your love and your longing behind
              Em
   You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
       G                  
   The dog days are over, the dog days are done
   G                 Am            Em
   Can you hear the horses, cause here they come
