DOGS - Pink Floyd
---------------------------
The other dogs.crd file from Nevada has some mistakes in it
I think it was just a slip-up when it was typed, but the last two
chords it gives sound horrible.
I think you have to tune all strings down a tone to be in tune
with the record, so the strings should be tuned to : DGCFAD
I've missed out the three repeated bars in the middle and at the end
What I've tabbed is just one bar's worth of each chord.
Hope you get the idea
Enjoy !

TUNING: DGCFAD (down one full step)
Dm9 Bbadd4 E7sus4 Ebmaj7sus4
Dm9
You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
Bbadd4
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
E7sus4
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
Ebmaj7sus4
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking
Dm9
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Bbadd4
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
E7sus4
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
Ebmaj7sus4
So that when they turn their backs on you
Dm9 Bbadd4 E7sus4 Ebmaj7sus4
You'll get the chance to put the knife in
Dm9 Bbadd4 E7sus4 Ebmaj7sus4
Dm9
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
Bbadd4
You know it's going to get harder, harder, and harder as you get older
E7sus4
Yeah, and in the end you'll pack, fly down south, hide your head in the sand
Ebmaj7sus4 Dm9
Just another sad old man all alone and dying of cancer ah ah

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Bbadd4
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
E7sus4
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
Ebmaj7sus4
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Dm9
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
Bbadd4
That everyone's expendable and no-one had a real friend
E7sus4
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner

Everything's done under the sun, and you believe at heart, everyone's a killer

Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a seat in the stand
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
G G/F# Em C B7
Who was dragged down by the stone
B7 G G/F# Em
Who was dragged down by the stone
NOTE: On the last strum of each bar add a finger on the top D string
- for the E chord, add at the second fret, for the Eb chord add
at the first fret:
ANOTHER NOTE: I thought I'd take the hints from the previous posting and
figure out the rest of the song. Not sure at all about the middle
instrumental part- I did that kind of quickly.

[Intro]
(play each chord for 4 bars):
OK! I have finally unlocked the mystery of the acoustic intro to this song! It is tuned down a WHOLE step and played in E minor, so it sounds like D minor. The real way David Gilmour played the four intro chords is like this:
Of course, no one wants to tune down a whole step just for the first few minutes of the song, so I invented a way to play it in standard tuning. The chords are shown above, but for a recap here they are:
Dm9 You've got to be crazy, you've got to have a real need Bbadd4 You gotta sleep on your toes when you're on the street Asus2 You got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed Then moving in silently, downwind and out of sight Absus2 You've got to strike when the moment is right without thinking Dm9 Bbadd4 After a while you can work on points for style, like the club tie And the firm handshake, a sudden look in the eye, and an easy smile Asus2 Absus2 You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to so that when they turn their backs on you, you'll get the chance to put the knife in
Dm9 You've got to keep one eye looking over your shoulder Bbadd4 You know it's gonna get harder, harder and harder as you get older Asus2 Yeah, and in the end, you'll pack up, fly down south, hide your head Absus2 Dm9 in the sand--just another sad old man all alone and dying of cancer

Dogs Of War
by Pink Floyd
[here are the chords, listen to teh record to find get the rhythm]
Cm
Dogs of war, and men of hate,
With no cause, we don't disciminate,
Discovery, is to be disowned,
Our currency, is flesh and bone,
Ebm
Hell opened up, and put on sale,
Gather 'round and haggle,
Cm
For hard cash we lie, and decieve,
But even our masters dont know the webs we weave,
Ab
One world, it's a battleground,
Fm
One world, and we will smash it down,
Cm
One world, one world
Cm
Invisable transfers, long distance calls,
Hollow laughter, in marble halls,
Steps have been taken, a silent uproar,
Has unleashed the dogs of war,
Ebm
You can't stop what has begun,
Signed, sealed, they deliver olivion,
Cm
We all have a dark side, to say the least,
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast
Ab
One world, it's a battleground,
Fm
One world, and we will smash it down,
Cm
One world, one world,
[solo]
[last verse w/ overdubs below]
Cm
The dogs of war wont negotiate
The dogs of war wont capitulate
They will take, and you will give,
And you must die, so that they may live,
Ebm
You can knock, at any door,
But where ver you go, you now they've been there before,
Cm
Winners can lose, things can get strained,
But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain,
Ab7
One world, it's a battle ground,
Fm G7sus4
One world, and we will smash it down,
Cm
One world, one world .......
