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