Chords

[Intro] Em D C B [Verse 1]
Em                   D
Down at the dogs the bets are placed

  C                   B
A wad of notes rolled in a hand

    Em                D
The floodlit track is center stage

    C                 B
For winning hounds to take the stand

         Em                    D
In old covert coats and trilby hats

           C               B
The owners swan around the place

            Em                 D
The tic tac man throws out his arms

             C                      B
His thin moustache stretched on his face
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Gone to the dogs the man and his life

G                         F
He stands by the rail and looks at the sky

G
Confused by the thoughts that stew in his mind

G                       B7
Alone by the track on a Saturday night
[Chorus]
C           A7
Gone to the dogs

G  B7
He stands and reflects

C           A7
Gone to the dogs

G   B7
And has no regrets

C           A7
Gone to the dogs
[Verse 2]
Em                        D
The restaurant's full and table bets

    C            B
Are taken by the girls who serve

    Em               D
The basket meals and German wine

C                      B
Excitement mounts, the buzz is heard

    Em                 D
The stadium is full of screams

          C               B
And cigar smoke is in the air

              Em                   D
The dogs race around on their last lap

             C                       B
And down the straight they chase the hare
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Gone to the dogs the man and his life

G                         F
He stands by the rail and looks at the sky

G
Confused by the thoughts that stew in his mind

G                       B7
Alone by the track on a Saturday night
[Chorus]
C           A7
Gone to the dogs

G  B7
He stands and reflects

C           A7
Gone to the dogs

G   B7
And has no regrets

C           A7
Gone to the dogs
