The Dogs of B.A. Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
I hung [Em]myself out on [G]the [Bm]line
Beneath an Ar[B]gentina [Em]sky
And I expected there [G]to [Bm]dry
Beneath [B]the [Bm]Ar g[B]entina s[Em]ky
Upon the rooftop here [G]so [Bm]high
Beneath the [B]Argentina [Em]sky
The storm did call me to its [G]side[Bm]
Beneath the Ar[B]gentina [Em]sky

[Verse 2]
[Em]
And [C]the dogs of Buenos Aires they
[Em]will take [B]you from your sleep
Between the [C]firecrackers cackling
and [Em]the taxis [B]in the street
And if [C]you wake up lonely better throw
[Em]some [B]shoes upon those feet
To keep the [C]heartbreak from
[B]taking [Em]your life

[Interlude 1]
[C][B][Em]

[Verse 3]
Once I had [Em]planned to be
[G]your [Bm]bride
Before this Ar[B]gentina [Em]sky
Now I just tend my wounded [G]pride[Bm]
Un[B]der this Argentina [Em]sky
Now I want the rain to fall
into my [G]eyes[Bm]
From this Ar[B]gentina [Em]sky
The thunder to match my
anguished [G]cries[Bm]
Beneath this [B]Argentina sky
[Em]

[Verse 4]
I [C]looked into the darkening
and [B]while the air did chill
I knew that [C]though I'm here in exile
that [B]you should love me still
And when [C]the rain began to
pound I lif[B]ted up my face until
I was [Em]soaked with [B]the ache

[Interlude 2]
of the sky
[Em][C][B][Em]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Ella [G]hacía el lavado de
una terraza,
Mientras el sol le [Bm]quemaba la espalda,
El[B]la intentaba fregar el sudor de
[Em]su desconsuelo,
Escurrir las lágrimas,
Pero antes que la tarea estuviera terminada,
[G]La ropa todavía doliente en la soga,
[Bm]
[B]Bajó desde el [Em]delta
un viento poderoso
[G]Why las nubes se cargaron a lo lar[Em]go del
[B]cie[Em]lo
¡Rápido, adentro, cerrad las
ventanas, viene una tormenta!
Sacá tu [G]ropa de la soga.

[Interlude 3]
[B][Em]

[Verse 6]
So many [Em]tears could make
[G]me [Bm]blind
Beneath [B]this Argentina [Em]sky
But still my love for you I can't [G]deny
[Bm]Even un[B]der Ar[Em]gentina's skies
I'll seek until a path to you I [G]find[Bm]
Under [B]these Argentina [Em]skies
When will you take me back in[G]side
[Bm]From under[B] Argentina's skies
[Em]

[Verse 7]
I [C]looked into the darkening
and [B]while the air did chill
I knew that [C]though I'm here in exile
[Em]that [B]you should love me still
And when the [C]rain began to pound
I lif[B]ted up my face until
I was [C]soaked with the
[B]ache of the [Em]sky
When will [C]you take me [B]back in[Em]side
From [C]under these [B]Argentine [Em]skies?

[Outro 1]
