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
                    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

     G
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
                Am
The horses are coming
    Em
So you better run

Chorus:
     G
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
                              Am
Leave all your love and your longing behind
           Em
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
     G
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
                     Am
Can you hear the horses?
        Em        G
'Cause here they come

    G                        Am   Em
And I never wanted anything from you
       G
Except everything you had
                  Am           Em
And what was left after that, too, oh

Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
Struck from a great height
By someone who should have known better than that

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

Chorus:
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
(The dog days are over)
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
(The dog days are done)
Leave all your love and your longing behind
(Can you hear the horses?)
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
('Cause here they come)

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come
