Dog Bumped Chords

(ver. 1)
Tim Barry
[Chorus]

G                      C          G
One quick minute got me 28 long years
                                D
But I’d do it again, I don’t regret it
             G
He laid his hand on my sister
          C                G
Too many times when I was near
                    D
And I shot him dead
        G
and I don’t care

[Verse]

      G           C                 G
When sis was born and I was about twelve
                                    D
‘Bout the same time my old man, he went to jail
      G                    C           G
Then mom got sick, boy, she never got right
                         D               G
And I took to that baby girl like she was mine
                    C         G
Night after night, day after day
                            D
I worked my ass off to put money away
      G              C             G
Then sis grew up and I grew older still
                       D        G
And I love her the best and always will

[Chorus]

      G                     C          G
Then one quick minute got me 28 long years
                                D
But I’d do it again, I don’t regret it
             G
He laid his hand on my sister
          C                G
Too many times when I was near
                    D
And I shot him dead
        G
and I don’t care

[Interlude]

G C G D G (x2)

[Verse]

       G                        C          G
Well, Sis met a man whose name I will not tell
                                 D
Nine years her senior and I did wish them well
          G            
He had a car and a job 
C               G
and she was in love
                       D          G
And I blessed them both the best I could
G                           C           G
Sis loved to dance and she lived honestly
                                          D
But that old dog tried to control her in every way
G                               C      G
First came the drinking then the jealousy
                           D          G
This town is too small for me not to see
G                         C             G
Him out every night with every girl in town
                                        D            G
Just before he goes home and pushes my sister around
                       C      G
I thought it out not to intervene
                D                  G
Unless my baby sister, she came to me
           G                     C               G
Well, she did one night when that old dog showed up
                                          D
She whispered on the phone, “Ken I ain’t feeling so good”
G
When I got to the house
C               G
what I saw was true
                D                G
My baby sister beaten black and blue
        G                       C         G
Well I took my last breath of fresh free air
                                                D
And I found that piece of sh*t asleep in his relaxing chair
G                             C                G
I hit him good with a solid right and a solid left
                         D             G
And I forced him to his feet for his last breath
       G                          C         G
Well he cowered and run, but he didn’t get far
                                               D
Cause my sister shot him f**king dead just outside his car
G            C
Boy, she wept and I did too
        G                 D                 G  C  G
Then I told the police I did what I had to do

[Chorus]

          G                      C        G
And that one quick minute got me 28 long years
                                D
But I’d do it again, I don’t regret it
             G
He laid his hand on my sister
          C                G
Too many times when I was near
                    D
And I shot him dead
        G
and I don’t care
       G
Yeah, one quick minute got me 28 long years
N.C.
But I’d do it again, I don’t regret it
N.C.
He laid his hand on my sister
N.C.
Too many times when I was near
                                 G
And I shot him dead and I don’t care
