Dog Gone

Bm            D   F#          G
  I could not pray, I felt so dog gone,
Bm                D             G        A7
  Couldn’t get no witness but I did not know
       Bm         D          F#                    Gm
Then a voice in a whisper said you’ve got to carry it on


      D             Bm         D             Bm
And the news is gonna break, the news is gonna break,
    D             A               D           G
The news is gonna break that I am here,  whoa oh

[Verse 2]
Bm              D  F#        G
  Out along the way I got so bogged down,
Bm           D                G        A7
  I had some business there I did not slow,
      Bm         D         F#                      Gm
And a boy in the world said you’ve got to carry it on,

[Chorus]
        D             Bm         D             Bm
And the news is gonna break, the news is gonna break,
    D             A               D           G
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa oh

[verse 3}
Bm          D         F#           G
  I’m not a messenger, I’m not the passenger
Bm             D                  G        A7
  Got some business there but you did not know,
        Bm          D               F#                   Gm
And the point of my visit, well, sir, that’s to carry me on,


        D             Bm             D             Bm
And the news is gonna break, and the news is gonna break,
           D              A               D            G
Yeah, your noose is gonna break when I am there,  whoa oh

[Bridge]
D       A  G  D      A  G  D        A    C       Bm                G
 No  Paris,    no Nepal,    no Barstow,  wont be none of them at all,
D   A    G/D   A                  G/D   A       C           Bm                 G
 No Congo,  no Kish or Kishangargh,  no Memphis, it doesn’t matter who you are,

[Verse 4]
Bm          D  F#          G
  I’m on my way, I feel so dog gone,
Bm              D                G        A7
  Go ‘bout your business but you did not know,
        Bm             D                F#                   Gm
And the point if there is one, well, sir, that’s to carry me on,

[Final Chorus]
        D             Bm          D              Bm
And the news is gonna break (your noose is gonna break),
    D             A               D          G
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa oh
    D             A               D          G
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa oh
    D                   A               D     G A D
And your noose is gonna break when I am here


No Congo, no Kish or Kishangargh, no Memphis
