Black Dog Jesse Winchester
BLACK DOG
Jesse Winchester
[Am]Black dog often sniffs the plate
[Dm]Steaming [(G)]on the st[Am]ove
The [Am]kids ain't seen you home all day
You're a g[Dm]entleman [(G)]born to r[Am]oam
CHORUS:
But this b[Dm]lack dog don't bel[Am]ieve in sin
[Dm] Think of where the bl[Am]ack dog's been
[Dm] Think of where [E7]he's been.....tod[Am]ay
Repeat Chorus
Have you seen the black dog's teeth
Sharp, like a knife
Have you seen them tear a bone
or a throat to take a life
Repeat Chorus
Have you seen black dog's eyes
Stare into the fire
It would not occur to him
To question your desire
Repeat Chorus
Iv'e always had a fear of creatures
Cryin' in the dark
And every form of evil
Seems to bear an evil mark
Repeat Chorus
My woman lies beside me
And the black dog at my feet
She keeps me from my wandering life
He robs me of my sleep
Repeat Chorus
I don't know the black dog's name
When I call him, he don't come
How'd I ever get that black dog
Lord I sure never wanted one
Repeat Chorus
