C D ʼCause here they come G Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father G Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers Em Leave all your loving, your loving behind C D You cant carry it with you if you want to survive G The dog days are over G The dog days are done Em Can you hear the horses? C D ʼCause here they come G The dog days are over G The dog days are done Em The horses are coming C D So you better run
