Intro: Em x3


     Em                   G       D/F#
That old dog knows how to find me
   Em                             G    D/F#
It matters not which road I travel on
      Em                      G          D/F#
And I thought those days were behind me
       Em                                 G        D/F#
But it turns out I could not have been more wrong
       Em                     G        D/F#
And he sits right there on my shoulder
     Em                      G     D/F#
His cold, wet breath upon my neck
        Em                             G       D/F#
And they said he would leave when I got older
       Em                             G     D/F#
But he still creeps up when I least expect

         C                  Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
      C                    Em
And I can't explain how it feels
      C                      Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
         C                                  Am                              Em
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels


            Em                      G      D/F#
And there's no good reason for his visits
      Em                         G      D/F#
He requires neither catalyst nor cause
          Em                  G      D/F#
And he'll push me to my very limits
        Em                                G      D/F#
Leaving nothing but the scars left by his claws
       Em                            G     D/F#
And he steals the wind right out my sails
       Em                            G      D/F#
And he leaves me at the mercy of the waves
          Em                G         D/F#
And I've tried but I have failed to outrun him
            Em                          G      D/F#
But I'm not fast enough on my feet to escape


         C                  Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
      C                    Em
And I can't explain how it feels
      C                      Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
         C                                  Am                              D
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
      Em     Em D/F#      D/F# G      G D/F#    (switch quickly between the ones that are closer
 together)
At my heels


D/F#    C                   Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
      C                    Em
And I can't explain how it feels
      C                      Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
         C                                  Am                              D
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
         C                  Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
      C                    Em
And I can't explain how it feels
      C                      Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
         C                                  Am                              Em
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
