Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

GLying there on the Bmfront porch wCith his head in hGis paws

EmSat the dog whoseG name was Dusty wCho lived there at my Ggrandpa's

 I said, “GraGndpa he must be Bma good oCne waiting for you, chewing onG his bone”

EmGrandpa said, “Well, toG tell you the truth sometimesC I wish he'd just leavGe me alone”

 With yourG grandma gone itBms just me and Chim but he sure ain'tD the best

EmSure he'll catch everyG stick that I throw bCut sometimes he's jGust a pest

 WeG had a dog that we calleBmd Dozer cause Che rooted throughG the dirt

EmThat night he wanderedG up so hungry eatiCng cracked corn set out foGr the birds

Chorus

 Well youC can't replace your best Gbuddies

 So bCe good to them while yDou can

 And Emif you don't show it thatG lump in your throat

CReminds you, youD miss your beGst friends

Verse 2

He used to run beside my tractor play with the kids in the yard

He'd catch every stick and kill every snake and tree every coon on the farm

Like all dogs Dozer got older and his playing days came to an end

He'd whimper with every step that he took, it hurt to see the suffering of my friend

So I hauled him up to the pasture where he played years ago

I patted his head, said, “I'll miss you my friend” and I sent him to where the good dogs go

Verse 3

Well Grandpa, he met up with Grandma the morning he passed away

Dusty sat all day on the porch waiting for Grandpa to come out and play

It was evening before we knew, I got there late in the day

Dusty watched as that ambulance hauled his best friend away
