Dog Days Are Over by Florence And The Machine
Dog Days
G G Am Em
Happiness, hurt like a train on a track
G G Am Em
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
G
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
Am Em
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
G
With every bubble she sank with a drink
Am Em
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
Chorus
G
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are done
Am Em
The horses are coming so you better run
G
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
G
Run for your children and your sisters and brothers
G Am
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Em
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
Chorus
G
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are done
G Am Em G
can you hear the horses cuz here they come
G G G Am Em
And I never wanted anything from you
G G
Except everything you had
G Am Em
And what was left after that too. oh.
G G Am Em
Happiness it hurt like a bullet in the head
G
Stuck from a great height
G Am Em
By someone who should know better than that
Chorus
G
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are gone
G Am
Can you hear the horses
Em G
Cuz here they come
G
Run fast for your mother and fast for your father
G
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers
G Am
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Em
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
Chorus
G
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are gone
G Am
Can you hear the horses
Em
Cuz here they come
G
The dog days are over
G
The dog days are gone
G Am
The horses are coming
Em C G
So you better run

played once without vocals, then:
G Am Em
Happiness hit her like a train on a track...
G Am Em
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back...
G
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
G Am Em
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
G
With every bubble she sank with her drink
G Am Em
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From here I would use open chords or preferably barre chords
G (320033 or 320003) or (355433 barre chord)
Am (-02210) or (577555 barre chord)
Em (022000)
