C                   G
 God is a wild old dog
Em                        C
 Someone left out on the highway
                     G
 I seen him running by me
             D              G
 He don't belong to no one now

 We dropped him out on 93
D                             C
 Mange was setting in on his hips and on his knees
                               G
 Between the highways running north and south
D                        C
 We pulled on over and we put him out

                              G
 Willie said he was old and going blind
D                     C
 Momma told me how she didn't mind
                              G
 When Willie kicked him with his shoe
           D                 C
 He just climbed on in just like he knew

C                    Em
 It's lonely on the highway
               G                D
 Sometimes a heart can turn to dust
                       C
 Get whittled down to nothing
                  Em
 Broken down and crushed
              C
 In with the bones of
           D
 Wild old dogs

D                                  C
 Tall grass was waving there just like the sea
                               G
 He tore off running like we'd set him free
       D                     C
 Just disappeared right in front of me


C                   G
