Dog is Dead- Burial Ground


C                        C
Lending your love to the usual strangers
C                        C 
well I've been acting my age
C      G  F  F  C (slide back to C from the F)

C                         C
I'd try to help if I could make things better 
C                 C
time is slipping away
C      G  F  F  C


           Dm     Am
Now you're back to the start
           Dm             F     C     Dm C     C      Dm C
now you're back where you came from
        Dm       Am       
and we all fell apart
        Dm           F       C        C      Dm C
when we heard that you changed


F                      C
Run, run, run from the burial ground
        G                 
to your best friend's house 
        Am               F  C  G  Am
because he's still alive
F                     C
Take, take, take yeah take it all back
        G            
but you have to admit
               Am                    F  C  G  Am
you could have handled things better


        C                Dm C
you're doing your best but you're all to clever
C           Dm C 
take a fall on me 
C      G  F  F  C     Dm C

    C                     Dm C
I'm callous and blessed for the first time ever 
C           Dm C 
taking time to heal
C      G  F  F  C


           Dm     Am
Now you're back to the start
           Dm             F     C      Dm C     C      Dm C
now you're back where you came from
        Dm       Am       
and the changing of hearts 
        Dm     F       C      Dm C
is all such a strange thing


F                      C
Run, run, run from the burial ground
        G                 
to your best friend's house 
        Am               F  C  G  Am
because he's still alive
F                     C
Take, take, take yeah take it all back
        G            
but you have to admit
               Am                    F  C  G  Am
you could have handled things better
