Hey :) I asked Gaz for the tabs for this when I met him at Glastonbury this year, and he told me:
Intro: Em
Verse: Em | G | D/F#
Chorus 1: C | Em (x3) | C | Am
Chorus 2: C | Em (x3) | C | Am | D
Instrumental: Em | D/F# | G
I fiddled around until I found a way to play it that fits roughly with this version he did:

Intro: Em x3
Em G D/F#
That old dog knows how to find me
Em G D/F#
It matters not which road I travel on
Em G D/F#
And I thought those days were behind me
Em G D/F#
But it turns out I could not have been more wrong
Em G D/F#
And he sits right there on my shoulder
Em G D/F#
His cold, wet breath upon my neck
Em G D/F#
And they said he would leave when I got older
Em G D/F#
But he still creeps up when I least expect
C Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
C Em
And I can't explain how it feels
C Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
C Am Em
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
Em G D/F#
And there's no good reason for his visits
Em G D/F#
He requires neither catalyst nor cause
Em G D/F#
And he'll push me to my very limits
Em G D/F#
Leaving nothing but the scars left by his claws
Em G D/F#
And he steals the wind right out my sails
Em G D/F#
And he leaves me at the mercy of the waves
Em G D/F#
And I've tried but I have failed to outrun him
Em G D/F#
But I'm not fast enough on my feet to escape
C Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
C Em
And I can't explain how it feels
C Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
C Am D
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
Em Em D/F# D/F# G G D/F# (switch quickly between the ones that are closer together)
At my heels
D/F# C Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
C Em
And I can't explain how it feels
C Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
C Am D
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
C Em
And it's hard to say why it has to be today
C Em
And I can't explain how it feels
C Em
But a black dog day could be just one sleep away
C Am Em
And I'll never see him coming but I'll keep running with him snapping at my heels
