William Shatners Dog Guitar Tabs by Stephen Fretwell

Hi I'm a big Stephen Fretwell fan and try to find as many of his tabs as possible.  I
this song on U Tube - Stephen performs it live and its also on his new ep. Made me smile
I thought I'd try and tab it.  Its just rough at the moment but if you have amendments 
send them through (shandyhaggis@yahoo.com)

Thanks:-)

verse 1
I walk by the water and
head for your house
though I know that you'll be out
in some dirty city bar

I stand on your street
and I stare at your room
and the shadows play and move
and your brother comes out with a bat

chrous
Sayin that
you might be with your sister in Paris
on the Rue turnau
wearing Marline Ditrik glasses
where we made that bet
that bet I knew youd win for sure
when you where sick on the floor

verse 2
The denim is ripped
beneath the patch
its an itch I can never scratch
now its so far gone the past

The fines I
having trouble to contest
with the library book you kept
the one that sent your head so far west

chrous
far far away
in those continental cities
where they get in a race
to see who can build the tallest buildings

where you went for some space
and wound up
with a slightly redder face
and a pain in your gut

verse 3
I turn on the TV
and I see there your face
and in it is not one trace
of that old brown bowl of lace

and that bowl of lace
is sat beside the gas bar fire
where you probably laid
eating ice cream chocolate wallaims

that your mother brought home
from the freezer store
on the old kent road
she too had enough

and that look on your face
that you'd throw accross the dinner table
in the middle of grace
with your fathers eye closed shut tight

and it happend like that
every damn night
that I had to come
to your house

well tell Charles Okief
that i dont want to go to Paris
its sunnier hear
and Im happier in this loveless marriage

with the girl from the pru
and your father and your sister
and your mother too
and not forgeting you
