John Hiatt – My Dog And Me (Guitar)

    E                       A        E
She marked our trail up the backbone ridge.

C#m                B   A
How many times can one dog pee?

E                                   A       E
Keeps me high as an eagle, when I'm on the skids.

            C#m        B            A
I guess she gotta come down eventually.

      A         E         B     E
Buddy I could'a gone that extra mile.

       A     E           B     A
For an extra bark, or an extra smile.

      A       B       C#m
Cause I never felt so free,

       A       B       E
It was just my dog and me.

         E                              A        E
Then she gives me that look, like she'd lay down her life.

   C#m                  B       A
No doubt she would in a minute, man.

      E                         A    E
She'd face the bullet, oh she'd face the knife.

        C#m                   B      A
Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan.

          A           E       B          E
Now she's runnin' up ahead to chase some deer.

      A       E                B        A
Comes back to tell me that the coast is cleared.

       A         B       C#m
It's a different world I see,

          A       B       E
when it's just my dog and me.

C#m       A    E          B
There's a rabbit on the run.

C#m     A         E  B     A
Man and beast and sky and sun.

      A              B            C#m
Who's talking to the birds in the trees?

         A       B       E
Why it's just my dog and me.

E                         A      E
Now it looks like we been makin' tracks,

         C#m                  B          A
from the crack of dawn to the end of the day.

        E                      A       E
So it's nice and easy down the devil's back.

C#m                   B     A
She wouldn't know any other way.

         A         E         B        E
Now it's over that ridge for one last mile,

            A    E            B    A
then we're fast asleep by the fireside.

A              B          C#m
Dreamin' these dreams for free.

          A       B       E
Yeah it's just my dog and me.

A       B        C#m
I never felt so free.

      A       B       E
It is just my dog and me.
