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 
C     G
I�m singing my song

Continues after the ad
Chorus:
C        G            Am         
Treacherous compliance, what have 
  F
you done to me?
C        G            Am         
I�m a fraction of the shadow 
  F
of the 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
  F
 a little miffed
C        G            Am         
Is this what I�m reduced to, 
  F
a casual memento?
C        G            Am         
I�ve seen all of creation, 
  F
but to it I�m incidental
C        G            Am    
But there�s more to this 
       F
automaton 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 
C     G
I�m 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 
  F
of the canine I could be
C        G            Am  
I see other dogs in the park, 
         F
They're fetching sticks and digging 
bones
C        G            Am         
Never has a tin dog ever felt so 
  F
alone
C        G            Am           F
Oh no
