The A* and the A chord are slightly
different from eachother. From the
a-chord, the second fret of the
b-string should be hammered on while
strumming between these two chords.
Variate a bit with the D-chord every
now and then at the end of each sentence.

Verse:
A A E DA rife sits behind her sleeping ear
Echo on the cold wall, closest neighbour couldn’t hear
A E E DWe dug a hole in the fall____
A* E D (single strums)
So now it’s a frozen burial
And she’s gone__, just before the new year
A A E D
Well i’m gonna build a cross for her spot between the trees
And stick it in firm so it won’t sway in the breeze
A* E D (single strums)
You and i have trouble making up our half-assed minds
A E DBut she’d seen sixteen years__ of our kind
What’s it like___|, when your memories start to freeze
Oh__and i wonder__
E A D AWhat it is about dogs and thunder__
E A E A DWhat they hear, coming over the field___
Back hall shelter, warm nights in summer
E A D AShaking the ground that you lie under
E AWell i know you’re not here
But at least you don’t feel it anymore__
And i came to see you, on the day that it happened
A* E D (single strums)
You said “Hey sorry Sar, but i gotta go”
DAnd i was trying to read, some sort of reaction
A* E D (single strums)
Something you just can’t show
DSo i guess it’s time i go
A A E D
Across the snowy barnyard, just pas the driving shed
Shadow of me in the moon, well i was in the movie in my head
A E DThis pile of dirt on the ground
A* E D (single strums)
Will sink when nobody’s around
Winter covers everything, but everything’s not dead
Oh__and i wonder__
E A D AWhat it is about dogs and thunder__
E A E A DWhat they hear, coming over the field___
Back hall shelter, warm nights in summer
E A D AShaking the ground that you lie under
E A* (play this last part 3 times)
Well i know you’re not here
But at least you don’t feel it anymore__
