Roger Was A Mine Dog Ukulele by John Edmond

Chords with lyrics

Key: D


Verse 1:
D
Dear old Misty was a Labrador
  G           A    D
She had her puppies on the kitchen floor  (BGV. Hmm-Hmm)
D
One called Roger and one called Patch
  G         A     D
One called Rover and one called Satch  (Hmm-Hmm)

Prechorus 1:
G             A
Poor little Roger was the runt of the litter
    D       G
He was always on his own
  G     A     D      G
All the other pups were stronger and fitter
  G    A    D
And they all found a home

Verse 2:
D
Little Jimmy really cried the day
   G           A   D
The soldiers came and took his dog away (Hmm-Hmm)
D
His dad said Son I really think it's best
    G             A    D
'Cause he digs up the flowers and he's a pest  (Hmm-Hmm)

Prechorus 2:
G             A
Poor little roger was the runt of the litter
    D        G
And he was so small and thin
   G    A    D     G
The soldier said he'd be a good sniffer
  G    A     D
To seek out the biscuit tin

Chorus:
G   A   D
Roger was a mine dog
G     A    D
A fine dog so they say
G   A     D    G
It was him that saved the skin
   G    A     D
Of the one who gave him away

Verse 3:
D
Jimmy's daddy joined the infantry
G         A  D
Doing his duty for his country  (Hmm-Hmm)
D
Shotgun rider with a heavy load
G              A   D
That truck was stopped on a lonely road (Hmm-Hmm)

Prechorus 3:
G          A
There was Roger the runt of the litter
     D        G
With his nose down in the ground
  G     A      D      G
The engineers dug and they all got the jitters
   G      A    D
When they saw what he had found

Chorus:
G   A   D
Roger was a mine dog
G     A    D
A fine dog so they say
G   A    D     G
It was him that saved the skin
    G    A     D
Of the one that gave him away

Chorus:
G   A   D
Roger was a mine dog
G     A    D
A fine dog so they say
G   A    D     G
It was him that saved the skin
    G    A     D
Of the one that gave him away

Chorus:
G   A   D
Roger was a mine dog
G     A    D
A fine dog so they say
G   A    D     G
It was him that saved the skin
    G    A     D
Of the one that gave him away
