Dog Years

Intro: Em  G  Em  G 


     Em                      G 
They said I have a universal blood type 
      Em                G 
I can give to anyone in need 
           Em                   G          Em  G 
But only receive from someone exactly like me (Mm) 
        Am           G 
And I'm trying to be positive 
    Am              G 
But oh, it's really hard 
      Em           G 
I'm a loner, I'm a loser 
          Em              G 
Won't you shoot me in the yard? 
       C           D 
Put me down like a lame horse 
   C              D 
Or send me to the farm 
              Em     G Bm 
Where all the dogs go (Oh) 


            Em                     G 
I've been a really good dog, can I come inside? 
                Em                      G 
Yeah, I've been such a good girl, can I go for a ride? 
         Em                      G 
I'm on a real short leash, but I like it tight 
              Em                           G                         Bm 
You know, I'm such a sweet girl, but I can really bitе (I can really bite) 


       Em               G 
'Cause my dog diеd last year 
         Em            G 
He fell asleep in my embrace 
        Em                G 
And the very last thing I told him 
              Em              G 
Was, "See you soon and we can race" 
           Am            G 
You know a mercy kill is what I seek 
         Am               G             Em G Bm 
I didn't ask to live, but dying's up to me 


            Em                     G 
I've been a really good dog, can I come inside? 
                Em                      G 
Yeah, I've been such a good girl, can I go for a ride? 
         Em                      G 
I'm on a real short leash, but I like it tight 
              Em                           G 
You know, I'm such a sweet girl, but I can really bitе 


C     D     C  D 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 
Em    G     Bm 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 


               Em             G 
Well, they say all dogs go to Heaven 
      Em           G 
Well, what about a bitch? 
Em            G 
What about an evil girl 
     Em         G 
Left lying in a ditch? 
         Am               G               Am          G 
Told the three people who asked that I am in a better place 
             Em                G 
With lots of trees and lots of grass 
             Em                G 
And lots of, lots of chocolate cake 


               C             D 
'Cause I'm not old, but I am tired 
        C                D 
I'm not strong, I'm very weak 
        Em            G 
I'm not old, but I am tired 
        Bm 
I'm not here, I'm somewhere else 
        C             D 
I'm not old, but I am tired 
        C              D 
I'm one hundred ninety-six 
              Em           G 
In dog years, I have seen enough 
             Bm 
I've seen it all 

 

            Em                     G 
I've been a really good dog, can I come inside? 
                Em                      G 
Yeah, I've been such a good girl, can I go for a ride? 
         Em                      G 
I'm on a real short leash, but I like it tight 
              Em                           G 
You know, I'm such a sweet girl, but I can really bitе 

Final: 

Em          G

   Em             G 
Or send me to the farm

Where all the dogs go
