A G G D
D A
[Verse 1]
Bm E
At midnight, the dogs
D A
gathered around the house
G
Around her house (Ooh, ooh,
ooh-ooh)
Bm E D
Her heart was like a drawer
G D
She only opened when she went
G D
Out to feed those dogs and let
G
her memories bathe
G E
In the moonlight for a while
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
Bm E
Those were the dogs
D
owned by the girls
A G
Who died in that house (Ooh,
ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Bm E D
Meeting every night,
G D
keeping vigil in the place (Oh)
G D
Where their people went away
A
And so she'd wake the rest
G A D
of her nights in that house
A G
Feeding all the hounds
D
at its mouth
[Interlude]
A B D
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
B D G D G E
B D B
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
D Em G
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
D G D D D
Oh-oh-oh-oh
D Bm
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Bm E
On her first night wandering
D A
through the dark (Ooh-ooh)
G
Of her new house (Ooh,
ooh, ooh, ooh)
Bm E D
Solemn as a bride
G
That's when she first saw
them (Ooh)
D G
Out the kitchen window right
D
at 12 o'clock (Ooh)
G
A dozen silent dogs of all
E7
different type (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
Bm E D
She almost was one of the girls
A G
Who died in that house (Ooh,
ooh, ooh)
Bm E D
So when it was stigmatized
A
She took it on to start a new
G D
life in that house (Ooh,
ooh, ooh)
A G D
Be the token coin in its mouth
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
A G
Maybe with enough time tending
A D
to that ground (Ooh-ooh)
A G
She can heal the heart
D
of her house (Ooh)
A G
Feeding all the hounds
D A D
at its mouth (Ooh)
