Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
E A E
Tige, you were faithful, faithful to the end
B A E
Tige, how I miss you, you were my best friend.
A
Three years of army service done and I was heading home at last
E
I got to thinking ‘bout my dog and things long gone and past
B A
How old Tige pulled me from the creek when I had no pulse or breath
E
How he saved me from the charging bull that gored my dad to death.
As a kid I’d dream of bears and tremble to my toes
A E
Till old Tige’d come up to my bed and nudge me with his nose
B
Then all my fears would melt away and Tige’d go lie down
A E
I’d drift on back to sleep without another sound.
The big bus stopped and I got off it was awful dark and thick with fog
A E
Then something gently nuzzled me and there stood Tige, my dog
B
I wondered if my faithful dog had met the bus each day
A E
And all the dreary winter nights since I’d been away.
To have old Tige meet me here like this I was, I was really glad
A E
‘Cos I hadn’t needed Tige so much since the day they buried dad
B
Two long miles lay ahead, but what I didn’t know
A E
A giant dam was being built where the old road used to go.
I thank the Lord for sending Tige and followed where he led
A
Knowing well that without his help I’d be good as dead
E B
Tige inched away this way and that going rough and slow
And I could hear the water lapping at the ledges far below.
A E
Then through the mist I saw a light, and mother in her chair
And I reached down to pat old Tige, but he wasn’t there
A E
I’m thankful mom you had old Tige these three lonely years
B
I owe my life to him tonight I couldn’t help my tears.
A E
You say you wrote me about the dam, well God was sure with us
I didn’t get your letter mom, but old Tige met the bus
A E
I hate to tell you son she said, but now you’ve got to know
B A E
When you left it broke his heart; Tige died three years ago.
