Dogs And Thunder

Artist: Sarah Harmer
Song Title: Dogs and Thunder
Submitted by: Tim Lawson (u.g. user turinbrakes)

again, i was looking for sarah harmer tabs and there seemed to be only one version of
dogs and thunder..this version sucked so badly that i’ve decided to give it a try myself..
i think it’s pretty close so check it out..

Standard Tuning: EADGBe
Capo: 2nd Fret
Chords: (written as used without capo)

The A* and the A chord are slightly
different from eachother. From the
a-chord, the second fret of the
b-string should be hammered on while
strumming between these two chords.
Variate a bit with the D-chord every
now and then at the end of each sentence.

Intro:
A* A E D  x2
Verse:
  A*           A       E        D
A rife sits behind her sleeping ear
A*               A             E                  D
Echo on the cold wall, closest neighbour couldn’t hear
   A*    E          E   D
We dug a hole in the fall____
              A*     E      D  (single strums)
So now it’s a frozen burial
          E       D  |                    | ( A* A E D ) x2
And she’s gone__, just before the new year
         A*            A             E                D
Well i’m gonna build a cross for her spot between the trees
    A*          A                E           D
And stick it in firm so it won’t sway in the breeze
A*                     E             D                (single strums)
You and i have trouble making up our half-assed minds
               A*      E |           D
But she’d seen sixteen years__ of our kind
E                D |                                 | ( A* A E D ) x2
What’s it like___|, when your memories start to freeze
E   A*    D    A
Oh__and i wonder__
        E        A*         D    A*
What it is about dogs and thunder__
E         A*    E      A*       D
What they hear, coming over the field___
E         A*            D         A*
Back hall shelter, warm nights in summer
E           A*          D       A*
Shaking the ground that you lie under
       E               A*
Well i know you’re not here
       E               A*         D      ( A* A E D ) x2
But at least you don’t feel it anymore__
      D
And i came to see you, on the day that it happened
              A*             E          D  (single strums)
You said “Hey sorry Sar, but i gotta go”
          D
And i was trying to read, some sort of reaction
A*            E          D     (single strums)
Something you just can’t show
     D
So i guess it’s time i go
 A*              A              E               D
Across the snowy barnyard, just pas the driving shed
A*                  A                       E           D
Shadow of me in the moon, well i was in the movie in my head
     A*      E           D
This pile of dirt on the ground
     A*          E        D    (single strums)
Will sink when nobody’s around
E                      D  |                  | A*   A E D
Winter covers everything, but everything’s not dead
E   A*    D    A
Oh__and i wonder__
        E        A*         D    A*
What it is about dogs and thunder__
E         A*    E      A*       D
What they hear, coming over the field___
E         A*            D         A*
Back hall shelter, warm nights in summer
E           A*          D       A*
Shaking the ground that you lie under
       E               A*            (play this last part 3 times)
Well i know you’re not here
       E               A*         D
But at least you don’t feel it anymore__
Outro:
A*  A  E  D    x4
