Stray Dog

G                              C 
  Well, I had fallen down again, 
      Dadd4
I had nowhere to go
G                     C         
  You had bolted your doors and 
Dadd4
closed your window
G                       C        
  Still a crack in your wall that
             Dadd4
 I could see through
  G                             
I saw your house was empty and I 
 C                Dadd4
rode out to meet you


[Pre-chorus]
        G                C        
But the city was cold confusing 
  Dadd4
and vast
        G                    C    
And the light in my soul was 
   Dadd4
fading fast
G                                 
Slung towards the back streets and
     C                Dadd4
 the alleys where the drunks fight
  G                               
I walked on past the factories in 
C           Dadd4
ever-dying sunlight


[Chorus]
  G         C  Dadd4
I needed you
  G         C  Dadd4
I needed you
  G               C         Dadd4
I needed you, but you never came for
 me

G  C  Dadd4    x2


[Verse 2]
G                     C          
  Many years now have passed, and
        Dadd4
 you've not left my mind

G                   C            
  And memories like photographs 
    Dadd4
have faded in time
G                   C             
  I walked past the cafes and the 
Dadd4
nightclubs
  G                               
I walked past the beggars and the 
C                 Dadd4
ladies with their white gloves


[Pre-chorus]
  G
I know it won't be long now
     C                Dadd4
It's getting near the end
   G                              
My ribs are poking through and my 
C               Dadd4
coat is getting thin


[Chorus]
         G   C  Dadd4
I needed you
               G   C  Dadd4
Yeah, I needed you
           G                   C  
You see, I needed you, oh, but you
       Dadd4
 never came for me

[Bridge]
C                     D         
  So I walked back to where I'd 
G           C
once called home
                   Em       D     
But the rooms were dark and bare 
       G          C
and the garden overgrown
                       D         
And the door was still locked and 
     G             C
the windows still shut
             Em    D
And the wall was still cracked
    G          C
Why did I come back?
                  D           
And the answer so thin left me 
 G          C
hollow within
             Em    D              
'Cos nothing had changed except 
  G           C
the date and my age
                      D      G    
And I still have this pain 
      C
bloating my veins
               Dadd4
Thumping in my aching brain


[Chorus]
  G         C  Dadd4
I needed you
        G         C  Dadd4
Yeah, I needed you
           G               C      
You see, I needed you, but you 
   Dadd4
never came for me

G              C              Dadd4
  So I turned away from my madness
G                       C        
  Thought I saw a light flicker 
          Dadd4
by the door
G               C                 
  I closed down both of my eyelids
Dadd4                        G
     and I thought no more
