G5 A5 E5 Happiness hit her like a train on a track... G5 A5 E5 Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back... G5 She hid around corners and she hid under beds G5 A5 E5 She killed it with kisses and from it she fled G5 With every bubble she sank with her drink G5 A5 E5 And washed it away down the kitchen sink G5 The dog days are over G5 The dog days are done G5 A5 The horses are coming E5 So you better run G5 Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father G5 Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers G5 A5 Leave all your loving, your loving behind E5 You cant carry it with you if you want to survive G5 The dog days are over G5 The dog days are done G5 A5 Can you hear the horses? E5 G5 'Cause here they come G5 G5 G5 A5 E5 And I never wanted anything from you G5 G5 G5 A5 E5 Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh G5 G5 G5 A5 E5 Happiness hit her like a bullet in the head..... G5 G5 G5 A5 E5 Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that G5 The dog days are over G5 The dog days are done G5 A5 Can you hear the horses? E5 G5 'Cause here they come G5 Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father G5 Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers G5 A5 Leave all your loving, your loving behind E5 You cant carry it with you if you want to survive G5 The dog days are over G5 The dog days are done G5 A5 Can you hear the horses? E5 'Cause here they come G5 The dog days are over G5 The dog days are done G5 A5 The horses are coming E5 So you better run ( G5 )
