[Verse 1]
A7 D7 D
Now when I was a lad and Old Shep was a pup
G G7 C
Often the fields we would stray
A7 D7 D
Just a boy and his dog, we were both full of fun
G G7 C
We grew up together that way
[Verse 2]
F Fm C
I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole
D7 G
When I would have drowned beyond doubt
C A7 D7 D
But Old Shep was right there, to the rescue he flew
G G7 C
He jumped and helped drag me out
[Verse 3]
A7 D7 D
As the years rolled along and at last he grew old
G G7 C
His eyesight was fast growing dim
A7 D7 D
Then one day the doctor looked at me and said:
G G7 C
"I can't do no more for him Jim"
[Verse 4]
F Fm C
So with tremblin' hand, I picked up my gun
D7 G
Aimed it at Shep's faithful head
C A7 D7 D
But I just couldn't do it, I wanted to run
G G7 C
I wished they would shoot me instead
[Parlando 1]
A7 D7 D
So I threw down that old gun, ran right up to Shep's side
G G7 C
He laid his faithful old head, right on my knee
A7 D7 D
And friends, I stroked the best pal, that a man ever had
G G7 C
I even cried so I scarcely could see
[Parlando 2]
F Fm C
Now Old Shepie he knew, he was goin' to go
D G G7
'Cause he reached out and licked at my hand
C A7 D7 D
Then he looked up at me, just as much as to say
G G7 C
I hate to but; you understand
[Coda]
D7 G7 C
Now Old Shep he's gone, where the good doggies go
D D7 G
And no more with old Shep will I roam
C A7 D D7
But if dogs have a heaven, there's one thing I know
G G7 C
Old Shep has a wonderful home
