The Antlers – Putting The Dog To Sleep (Guitar)

C              C/B          Am
Prove to me I’m not gonna die alone.

         Am/G            F
Put your arm around my collarbone,

              C    G
And open the door. 

       C                   C/B        Am
Don’t lie to me if you’re putting the dog to sleep,

     Am/G           F
That pet you just couldn’t keep,

               C     G
And couldn’t afford. 

       C            C/B         Am
Well prove to me I’m not gonna die alone.

   Am/G         F
Unstitch that shit I’ve sewn,

                 C                          G
To close up the hole that tore through my skin. 

         C                 C/B         Am
Well my trust in you is a dog with a broken leg,

Am/G             F                         C      G
Tendons too torn to beg for you to let me back in. 

                   C                   C/B       Am
You said, “I can’t prove to you you’re not gonna die alone,

    Am/G          F
But trust me to take you home,

                  C                  G
To clean up that blood all over your paws. 

                C
You can’t keep running out,

C/B       Am
Kicking yourself off the bed,

Am/G      F
Kicking yourself in the head,

                           C    G
Because you’re kicking me too.” 

          Dm          Am
Put your trust in me,

              Em         G
I’m not gonna die alone.

          Dm          Am
Put your trust in me,

               Em          G                    C
I’m not gonna die alone… I don’t think so...
