Verse: 
Bm                 Am 
Without fail from dawn to dusk 
   D               G  A  
At our house every day 
   Bm                 Am 
At least a hundred neighbour kids 
        D            G  A 
Would come around to play 
 
Bridge: 
     G 
Then one morning in place of Chris 
     B 
His mother came instead 
      G 
She looked at me with saddened eyes 
    A 
and this is what she said..... 
 
Chorus: 
D                          G 
Christopher won't come to play today 
C            G                D 
Shags, poor Shags has hung himself 
Bb          G 
Short wall, long chain 
     D 
That dog won't see the sun again 
    Bb          G              D 
Oh Shags, poor Shags has hung himself.
