“I’M A DOG” by The Hillbilly Thomists

[Intro]
C D G

C D G
the depths of this desiccation
C D G
the height of these scraping towers
C D G
the width of this waste
        C
and I see potential for action
C D G
inside I hold a treasure
C D G
take ahold of this earthen vessel
C D G
so worn and weary
            C
but there’s still potential for action

      G          D           C            G
I’m a dog with a torch in my mouth for my Lord
        Am                Em
making noise while I got time
          D                G
spreading fire while I got earth
        D           C       Em
how you wish it was already lit
      D       C                  Em
give me your fire, I’ll do your work
            D          G
I’m just a dog for my Lord

C D G
I hear a siren sounding
C D G
through streets and over mountains
C D G                                   C
hold out your torch and spread some fire all around you

I’m a dog with a torch in my mouth for my Lord
making noise while I got time
spreading fire while I got earth
how you wish it was already lit
give me your fire, I’ll do your work
I’m just a dog for my Lord

G             C                 D
When I found Him (who my heart lovеd)
                Em             C       D
I took hold of Him (would not let Him go)
                  G
would not let Him go
              C                 D
when I found Him (who my hеart loved)
                Em            C   Em D
He took hold of me (would not let me go)
          G   D  C
would not let me go
          D      G
would not let me go
