Verse 1
G
E
A
When I was a lad and old Shep was a pup
D
G
over hills and meadows we'd play
E
A
Just a boy and his dog we were both full
D
G
of fun we grew up together that way
C
I remember the time at the
G
old swimming hole
When I would have drowned
D
beyond doubt
G
E
But old Shep was right there
A
to the rescue he came
D
G
He jumped in and helped pull me out
E
Now the years they rolled by
A
and old Shep he grew old
D
G
His eye sight at last it grew dim
E
A
Then one day the doctor looked at him and
D
G
said I can't do no more for him Jim
C
With a hand that was trembling
G
I picked up my gun
D
And I aimed it at Shep's faithful head
G
E
A
But I just couldn't do it I wanted to run I
D
G
wished they would shoot me instead
C
Now old Shep is gone where
G
the good doggies go
D
And no more on this earth will he roam
G
E
A
But if dogs have a heaven there's one thing
D
G
I know old Shep has a wonderful home
