[Verse]
  B7
I met a nice old man today, oh, yes,
 oh
                                E
And he sure had a lot to say, a good
 long time ago
     B7
I've led a soldier's occupation, oh,
 yes, oh
In every part of this big nation, a 
E
good long time ago
     B7
I've seen the world and roamed its 
places, oh, yes, oh
I guess I've been in a million 
          E
places, a good long time ago

[Verse]
              A                    
But there are times when soldiering
      E
 gets lonely
    B7                     E
You long for friendly company
            A                  E
So when you find an unfamiliar city
B7                                
Here's advice that always worked 
   E
for me

[Verse]
B7
When your train gets into town, oh, 
yes, oh
Continúa después del anuncio
Just make a beeline for the pound, a
 E
 good long time ago
B7
Don't just wander helter-skelter, 
oh, yes, oh
Seek the nearest animal shelter, a 
E
good long time ago

[Verse]
              A                 
You soon will find the truest of 
    E
companions
  B7                            
A little dog can melt a heart of 
 E
stone
              A                
Just when you think you're up a 
        E
dreary canyon
  B7                               
A puppy's love can bring you close 
   E
to home

[Verse]
B7
Find a store and buy some twine, oh,
 yes, oh
Now tie the doggie to the line, a 
E
good long time ago
B7
Thus prepared for any weather, oh, 
yes, oh
Dog and man will stand together, a 
E
good long time ago

[Verse]
            A                      
For mothers warn their daughters of
     E
 the dangers
   B7                          E
Of soldiers in their quest for girls
A                     E
Never, never speak to strangers
  B7                           E
Unless they're from the canine world

[Verse]
  B7
A sweet young maid in passing by, 
oh, yes, oh
Saw my smile but made no reply, a 
E
good long time ago
    B7
The puppy fixed his gaze upon her, 
oh, yes, oh
Two steps more and she was a goner, 
  E
a good long time ago

[Verse]
             A                   
The sands of time have swept away 
     E
the heartaches
    B7                          E
The tears, the parting, and the pain
           A                   
The little pup I gave her for a 
 E
keepsake
     B7                 
Will always remind me of 
            E
what's-her-name (what's-her-name?)
