Capo on first fret verse 1: E A E She marked our trail up the backbone ridge. C#m B E 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 E I guess she gotta come down eventually.verse 2: E A E Then she gives me that look, like she'd lay down her life. C#m B 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 B E Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan. Chorus: E A E B E Now she's runnin' up ahead to chase some deer. A E B C#m Comes back to tell me that the coast is cleared. A B C#m It's a different world I see, B A E when it's just my dog and me. E A E C#m There's a rabbit on the run. C#m B A E Man and beast and sky and sun. Chorus: E A B C#m Who's talking to the birds in the trees? B A E Why it's just my dog and me. verse 3: E A E Now it looks like we been makin' tracks, C#m B E 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 E She wouldn't know any other way. Chorus: E 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. B A E Yeah it's just my dog and me. A B C#m I never felt so free. B A E It is just my dog and me.E 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, B A E It was just my dog and me.
