[Verse 1]
G G G G/B C D
Old dogs lie beside the door, they toss and turn and scratch and snore,
Em D G C G D
they fight again their puppy wars of playful battles raging.
G G G G/B C D
Old dogs lie alone at night, they tuck their tails, they curl up tight,
Em D G C G D G
they howl when moons are full and bright and recall when they were lovers.
[Chorus]
Em D C G
Old dogs have a song to sing, old dogs like most everything,
Em D G C G D G
they care not what the weather brings, except when it is thunder.

[Verse 2]
G G G G/B C D
Old dogs look you in the eye, they hold your heart, they never lie,
Em D G C G D
they bark at planes up in the sky and wish that they were fliers.
G G G G/B C D
Old dogs dream about the past when they frolicked fields of golden grass,
Em D G C G D G
and chased the icy winter's blast, to lie by home fires burning.
[Chorus]
Em D C G
Old dogs wander off alone but old dogs know the way back home,
Em D G C G D G
the slightest scent, the buried bone, the hunter home returning.

[Verse 3]
G G G G/B C D
Old dogs come and old dogs go, old dogs always seem to know,
Em D G C G D
that love is life's most precious flow and love is worth the waiting.
G G G G/B C D
And when their time on earth is through, old dogs are forever true,
Em D G C G D G
and 'round the bend they wait for you come some tomorrow morning.
[Chorus]
Em D C G
When their time on earth is through, old dogs are forever true,
Em D G C G D G
and 'round the bend they wait for you come some tomorrow morning.

When their time on earth is through, old dogs are forever true,
