[Verse]
F
I was hungry and I was cold,
      Dm
had a father far too old
          F                    G7         Cmaj7   C
Couldn't make it to the place he'd like to be
 
 
    F
In a tree trunk in the park,
       Dm
he was living in the dark
        G                D         G
Keeping other dogs like him for company
 
 
           F
And in the evening I'd go down
     Dm
to a nightclub in the town
        F                     G7      Cmaj7   C
Try to get some bread to make another way
 
 
F
Back to the park I'd go,
        Dm
dig him out of the snow
               G                D            G
You know he's lived a thousand years day to day
 
 
           Am
Well, the days get shorter
and the nights get longer
And you never learn to know
 
        Em
If you love one another,
could you look at each other
Could it ever really show
 
             Am
And at this moment in time
you couldn't make up your mind
             F
Now could you ever understand
 
 
         C        F
Are you following me
           C            F
just like Moses to the sea
         E                  Am     G          F
Do you think I'll give you freedom in the end
 
          C             F
When I'm long dead and gone
            C            F
will your love for me go on
       E              Am   G           F
Will I be the one you run to in the end
C          Dm      C     F                  Eb
   And     all     my   dogs  need a friend
 
 
C  Eb   C
 
           F                                  Dm
It was a quarter to three in the summer of '73
         F                 G7         Cmaj7   C
When I heard somebody call outside my door
                              F
Said 'Are you friend or are you foe'
                Dm
He looked up and he said
             G              D
No, but I'd like to come inside
              G
and know you more
 
           Am
Well, the days get shorter
and the nights get longer
And you never learn to know
 
       Em
If you love one another,
could you look at each other
Could it ever really show
 
            Am
And at this moment in time
you couldn't make up your mind
             F
Now could you ever understand
 
 
         C        F
Are you following me
          C               F
just like Moses to the sea
           E                         Am      G             F
Do you think I'll give you freedom in the end
 
          C              F
When I'm long dead and gone
           C             F
will your love for me go on
       E              Am   G           F
Will I be the one you run  to in the end
 
C         Dm     C    F                Eb
And      all     my  dogs need a friend
Eb  C  Eb  C   Eb              C  Eb  C  Eb C
               Need a friend      Need a friend
