Hes A Good Dog

G
He's a good dog.
         C
I've had him for years.
        D
He used to get up when I'd walk by.
                                        G
Now he just lifts up his ears,
And he thumps his tail on the floor
C
When I talk to him.
               D
When I talk too long, he just ignores me,
                                 G
And goes to sleep again.
G
He's a good dog.
     C
I got him as a pup.
     D
I tried to teach him all the tricks,
                            G
Then I just gave up
'Cause he never acted very bright,
                     C
Though his eyes they've got this glow,
             D
And I think he actually knows some things
                          G
That actually I don't.
              D
And he never barks at strangers,
              C
And he never barks at cars,
              D
And he howls at the coyotes
                          C                   D
While they're howling at the stars,
                 G
And he scratches at the back door
          C
Till someone lets him in,
                  D
Then he scratches at the other side
                                            G
'Cause he wants back out again.
G  C  D    G
G  C  D    G
G
He's a good dog,
         C
But one of these days
                   D
I'm gonna have to drive him into town,
                                G
And have him put away
'Cause he don't hear that good no more
C
And he can't hardly walk,
       D
But until then I look at him
And I say to him
             G
He's a good dog.
