We'll be together and no-one will tear us apart

Before too long
Em G A D G A
The words will be spoken I know all the action by heart
G D A Em
As the night time follows day I'm closing in
G D A
Every dog will have his day Any dog can win
Em G
Shut the shade
D A
Do not fear any more
Em G D
Here I come creeping round
Your back door
