K9s Lament

C        G            Am   
I knew a man that I will never 
        F
forget
C        G            Am           F
But nobody ever remembers the pet
C        G            Am         
He took me from the year 5000 on a 
  F
lonely asteroid
C        G            Am           F
He said he was looking for a droid
C        G            Am         
He was my master, his attention I 
  F
did crave
C        G            Am         
To him, I was nothing more than a 
  F
slave
C        G            Am         
We saved creatures all across the 
  F
galaxy
C        G            Am           F
But nobody ever thought to save me

Pre-chorus:

Am                  F            
And I wonder what life would be 
C     G
like if
Am                  F  
I could choose not to say 
          C     G
affirmitive
Am                  F            
People tell me what to do and I 
C     G
just roll along
Am                  F            
But inside my metal head I'm 
C     G
singing my song

Chorus:
C        G            Am         
Treacherous compliance, what have 
  F
you done to me?
C        G            Am         
I'm a fraction of the shadow of the 
  F
canine I could be
C        G            Am 
I see other dogs in the park 
          F
fetching sticks and digging bones
C        G            Am         
Never has a tin dog ever felt so 
  F
alone
C        G            Am           F
Oh no

Verse 2:
C        G            Am           F
He gave me to Sarah Jane as a gift
C        G            Am    
but I wasn't consulted, I was a 
       F
little miffed
C        G            Am   
Is this what I'm reduced to, a 
        F
casual memento?
C        G            Am         
I've seen all of creation, but to it
  F
 I'm incidental
C        G            Am         
But there's more to this automaton 
  F
than they will ever know
C        G            Am  
I'm more than just alloys and 
         F
circuits, I have soul
C        G            Am  
And I've got dreams just like 
         F
everybody else
C        G            Am         
I could conquer the world if I could
  F
 conquer myself

Pre-chorus:

Am                  F            
And I wonder what life would be 
C     G
like if
Am                  F  
I could choose not to say 
          C     G
affirmitive
Am                  F            
People tell me what to do and I 
C     G
just roll along
Am                  F            
But inside my metal head I'm 
C     G

Chorus:
C        G            Am         
Treacherous compliance, what have

C        G            Am  
I see other dogs in the park, 
         F
They're fetching sticks and digging

C        G            Am         
Never has a tin dog ever felt so

Oh no
