Text w/ chords:

verse 1:
    E                           A        E
She marked our trail up by the backbone ridge.
C#m                H       E
How many times can one dog pee?
               E                          A       E
(she) Keeps me high as an eagle, when I'm on the skids.
              C#m               H      E
I guess she gotta come down eventually.

Chorus:
      A          E         H      E
Buddy I could'a gone that extra mile.
      A      E          H       E
For an extra bark, or an extra smile.
 E      H       C#m
I never felt so free,
       C#m     H       E
It was just my dog and me.

Verse 2:
          E                              A        E
Then she gives me that look, like she'd lay down her life.
   C#m                   H       E
No doubt she would in a minute, man.
       E                         A       E
She'd face the bullet, oh she'd face the knife.
        C#m                    H      E
Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan.


Chorus:
          A            E       H          E
Now she's runnin' up ahead to chase some deer.
 A            E                  H       E
Comes back to tell me that the coast is cleared.
        E          H    C#m
It's a different world I see,
          C#m      H      E
when it's just my dog and me.

  E                      C#m
There's a rabbit on the run.
 E                        C#m
Man and beast and sky and sun.

Chorus:
       E              H            C#m
Who's talking to the birds in the trees?
          C#m     H       E
Why it's just my dog and me.

[Slide solo in E tonality]

Verse 3:
       E                     A       E
Now it looks like we've been makin' tracks,
          C#m                    H          E
from the crack of dawn 'till the end of the day.
        E                      A       E
So its nice and easy down the devil's back.
C#m                   H      E
She wouldn't know any other way.

Chorus:
         A          E        H        E
Now it's over that ridge for one last mile,
            A      E           H   E
then we're fast asleep by the fireside.
E                H         C#m
Dreamin' these dreams for free.
          C#m      H       E
Yeah it's just my dog and me.

Ending:
E        H       C#m
I never felt so free.
        C#m     H       E
It was just my dog and me.
