Good Dog A’Mighty c BurlDunn

G G7 C A
I had a dog one time, I mean to tell you the best of her line
G Em A DD7
That sweet girl loved me to the end
G G7 C A
When it got so she could hardly move her tail still wagged for me
G D GCGD
You don’t have to tell me how to treat my best friend.
G G7 C A
I got down on my knees, held her to my chest
G Em A D D7
She gave a long, relaxing sigh and surrendered to her death
G G7 C A
At that moment the love that flowed was pure and blessed
G D G CGD
You don’t have to tell me how to treat my best friend.
C G C G
I howled at the moon, I growled at strangers
Em A D D7
The pal I’d lost was ever ready for laughter and dangers
C G Em A
I’d give six more years for each one she gave me
G D G CGD
You don’t have to tell me how to treat my best friend.
Em C G Em
Every dog I’ve had has been all a dog can be
C A D D7
God help me be the man those dogs have seen in me.
G G7 C A
I had a dream last night, seemed so real
G Em A DD7
We were walking on a ridge that was so high
G G7 C A
Lord I slipped, I fell, I was falling straight into hell
G D G CGD
But my good dog dug in, she did not let me die.
G G7 C A
I landed on my knees, she jumped up on my chest
G Em A DD7
Licked my face and gave a great big grin
G G7
She said, “You can stumble, but you can’t fall,
C A G D
Not as long as I give my all. You didn’t have to train me to be your best
G CGD
friend.”

“I howled at the moon, I growled at strangers,
Em A D D7
You were the pal I loved, ever ready for laughter and dangers
C G Em A
I gave you six more years for each one you gave me
G D C
And you didn’t have to train me to be your best friend.”
G D C
No, and you don’t have to tell me who is my best friend
No, no, it’s my good dog a’mighty
G D G CGDG
Don’t tell me she’s my best friend.
