When I get back to my small flat

I  want   to hear somebody bark 
Gm                       F 
Oh,  you can get  lonely 
 
Don't want a cat, 
Scratching its claws all over my 
Habitat 
Giving no love and getting fat 
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely 
And a cat's no help with that

To walk in the park 
When it gets dark, my dog will bark 
At any passers-by 
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely 
I want a dog 
 
I want a dog, 
A chihuahua 
When I get back to my small flat 
I want to hear somebody bark 
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely
