Baby close your eyes
and hear the words I say
Am
Oh I realize
That you're in a lot of pain
G
and I apologize
I never wanted it this way,
C G
Please...don't cry
C
Baby I sold your dog on eBay
Am
We both knew that we had bills to pay
G C
It was either him or my PlayStation 2
G C
which doesn't even eat food
G C G
and will never ever pee on the duvet
C
One day I came home
and that dog had escaped
Am
he forsook his bone
and instead he ate
G
everything I own
from the couch to the drapes
C G
I called you on the phone
C
And said "I'm selling him on eBay
Am
We both know that we've got bills to pay
G C
He peed on season 2 of Deep Space 9
G C
That's crossing the line
G C G
I'm listing the auction today"
C G
I put him in a box with some Styrofoam peanuts
C
a bag of kibble and a couple of milk bones
C G
the guy online paid for overnight shipping
C G C
so the very next day he was in Buffalo
C G C
Oh, please don't cry,
G C
Oh, please don't cry,
G C
Baby, please don't cry,
G
Goddammit, stop crying.
C
He is an ugly dog
like a ball of walking fuzz
Am
and he poops constantly
more than any other dog does
G
but we won't have to worry
about it anymore because
C G
please listen to me
C
Yeah I sold him on eBay

we both knew that we had bills to pay
G C
I got a hundred fifty dollars for
G C
that mutt that peed all over my floor
G C G
and I know they'll be hell to pay
C
Yeah we had bills to pay
Am
so I sold her dog on eBay
G C
I told her "you have got to understand it
G C
yeah, he could sit
G C G
but he absolutely couldn't stay.
C G
yeah, he could sit
C G C
but he absolutely couldn't stay."
