VERSE:
        G              Am      C
Took a walk `round my neighborhood
 F            C            Dm      G
Wasn`t doing nothing just feeling good

 C               G       Am        C
Was an old grey dog who sits all alone
    F             C               Dm           G
His owners don`t notice him even when they`re home


PRE-CHORUS:
F                     G        Am
He used to look real cute I`ll bet
         F          C
But his tail`s all matted now
        Dm        G
And his fur is a mess


CHORUS:
         F        G    Em    Am
Just an old grey dog nobody sees
 F             G           Em       Am
Can`t run too fast not so eager to please
 F           G           Em        Am
Just lays around like a bump on a log
       F         C       Dm
But I love that old grey dog
 G                  C  G Bb A7 F G C G C
Love that old grey dog


VERSE:
 C             G         Am        C
When they get home from work each day
    F           C                  Dm         G
He trots up to meet them but they just turn away

C               G              Am      C
 Walk in their house while he waits behind
 F           C        Dm        G
Wagging his tail like he don`t mind


PRE-CHORUS:
 F                            G              Am
Guess they don`t know what a true friend is worth
          F     C     Dm     G
And they never wonder if it hurts


CHORUS:
     F        G    Em    Am
The old grey dog nobody sees
 F             G           Em       Am
Can`t run too fast not so eager to please
 F           G           Em        Am
Just lays around like a bump on a log
       F         C       Dm7
But I love that old grey dog
 G                  C  C
Love that old grey dog


BREAK:
 Bb                     F
Maybe it`s because one day
        Em                      C
All us humans will get old and grey
 Am                               E7
Then we`ll understand how you`ll need a gentle hand
          F                D7  D7
To reach out and say it`s OK


CHORUS:
          F        G     Em   Am
Like the old grey dog nobody sees
 F        G           Em          Am
Time has brought him down to his knees
 F                G          Em        Am
But he don`t give in and he don`t give up

       F         C       Dm
And I love that old grey dog
                    G
Love that old grey dog
                    C  G  Am  C  F  C  Dm  G
Love that old grey dog


OUTRO:
C  G  Bb  A7  F  G  C
