Where did you sleep last night?

Under the cold street light

Who last called you by your name?

Where did you leave your peace?

Other half of your broken leash

C D

Why did you run so far away?

[Chorus]

Lost dog

Something ‘bout you breaks my heart

D Em

Why you burying bones out in the yard?

I don't know if I want to know where you've been

Lost dog

Maybe I'll let you in

[Verse 2]

Home's not a word you say

Something made you stray

C D

Off like a feather in the wind

Where do you find the ground?

Let yourself be found

If I open my door

Make you my friend

C D

Are you gonna run off and get lost again?

[Chorus]

Lost dog

Something ‘bout you breaks my heart

Why you burying bones out in the yard?

Em C

I don't know if I want to know where you've been

Lost dog

Maybe I'll let you in

You don't have to live this way

A Em

Hiding from the pouring rain

A C

Running through the hunger and the pain

[Chorus]

Lost dog

Something ‘bout you breaks my heart

Why you burying bones out in the yard?

I don't know if I want to know where you've been

But lost dog,

Maybe I'll let you in

[Outro]

Em C

There's a broken in your eyes and it pulls me in

D Em

Will you let anybody get close again
