[Intro 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
When [C]I was a l[A]ad
And old [D]Shep was a pup
Over [G]hills and meadows we'd [C]stray
Just a boy and his [A]dog
We were [D]both full of fun
We [G]grew up together that [C]way

[Verse 2]
I re[F]member the [Fm]time at the
[C]old swimmin' hole
When I would have [A]drowned
beyond [D]doubt[G]
But old [C]Shep was right [A]there
To the [D]rescue he came
He [G]jumped in and then pulled me [C]out

[Verse 3]
[C]As the years fast did roll
[A]Old [D]Shep he grew old
His eye[G]s were fast growing d[C]im
And one day the [A]doctor
looked [D]at me and said
I [G]can do no more for [C]your dog

[Verse 4]
With [F]hands [Fm]that were trembling
I [C]picked up my gun
And aimed it at Shep[A]'s
faithful [D]head[G]
[C]I just couldn't [A]do it
I [D]wanted to run
I [G]wish they would shoot me instead
[C]

[Verse 5]
He came to [A]my side
[D]And looked up [G]at me
And laid his old head on [C]my knee
I had struck the be[A]st friend
[D]that a man ever had
[G]I cried so I scarcely could s[C]ee

[Verse 6]
[F]Old Shep he[Fm][C][A][D][G][C]
[A]has[D] go[G]ne[C][D]
Where the [G]good doggies [C]go
And no [D]more with old Shep will I [G]roam
But if [C]dogs have a [A]heaven
There's [D]one thing I know
Old [G]Shep has a wonderful [C]home
