Strumming
Tuning: E A D G B E
The song isn't exactly what you'd call "guitar-friendly," so try not to be too disappointed
if it doesn't sound a lot like the original.

Played once without vocals, then:
[Verse]
G Happiness hit her like a train on a trAmackEm...
G Coming towards her, stuck still, no turning bAmackEm...
She Ghid around corners and she hid under beds
She Gkilled it with kisAmses and fEmrom it she fled
With Gevery bubble she sank with a drink
And Gwashed it awAmay down the Emkitchen sink
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From here I would use open chords or preferably barre chords
G (320033 or 320003) or (355433 barre chord)
Am (x02210) or (577555 barre chord)
Em (022000)

[Hook]
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
The Ghorses are Amcoming
So Emyou better run
[Chorus]
Run Gfast for your mother, run fast for your father
GRun for your children, for your sisters and brothers
GLeave all your love and your lAmonging behind
You can't Emcarry it with you if you want to survive
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
GCan you hear the horAmses?
'Cause Emhere they comeG
(silence)
[Bridge]
(quiet)
And GI Gnever wanted Ganything Amfrom youEm
Except Gfor everyGthing you had and Gwhat was left Amafter that Emtoo, oh
(loud again)
G Happiness hit heGr like a bullet in the GbacAmk..Em...
G Struck from a great heightG by someone who Gshould know betAmter than Emthat
[Hook]
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
GCan you hear the horAmses?
'Cause Emhere they come G
(Percussion interlude)
[Chorus]
Run Gfast for your mother, run fast for your father
GRun for your children, for your sisters and brothers
GLeave all your love and your lAmonging behind
You can't Emcarry it with you if you want to survive
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
GCan you hear the horAmses?
'Cause Emhere they come
[Outro]
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
The Ghorses are coAmming
So Emyou better run
The Gdog days are over
The Gdog days are done
The Ghorses are coAmming
So Emyou better run
G
