D A G D
Ten years ago I was on my way home, saw her walking on the
A G
side of the highway alone.
D A G
It was raining like hell and I kept telling myself
D A G
"not my problem, keep on driving, just like everybody else."
Bm A
Why should I be the one pulling over on the shoulder at
G
night?
D A G
It's just a dog, right?
D A G D A G
From the cab of my truck, to the foot of my bed, to a new pair of boots that she chewed in shreds.
D A G
Digging holes in the yard, chasing cars down the street
D A G
till one got her and when I found her, I thought it hit me.
Bm A G
Took half of my savings to save her, and I didn't think twice.
D A G
It's just a dog, right?
G A D Bm A
Just an old mutt riding shotgun, getting my seats all muddy.
G A Em A
Just the one who I come home to, just my best fishin' buddy.
D A G
We were walking that spring in the sand on the beach.
D A G
You know she was the reason, Amy walked up to me.
D A G
She lost her place on the couch, but she kept her cool.
D A G
She was crazy about Amy and she knew I was too.
Bm A G
And the night that girl left me, she kept me from losing my mind.
D A G
But it's just a dog, right?
Bm A G D
It's 83° today and man I can hardly wait to get this truck down to the lake, I bet the bass' are hittin'.
Bm A
Boats in my rear view mirror, got my... tackle box and all my gear,
G Em A
the wind is right, the sky is clear, there's only one thing missin'.
G A D Bm A
Just an old mutt riding shotgun, getting my seats all muddy.
G A Em A
It just hit me she's not with me like she was this past Sunday.
Bm A G
Why am I pulling over on the shoulder with tears in my eyes?
D A G
It's just a dog, right?
D A G
She was just a dog, right?
