[Verse 1]
         C       A7       D
Oh, when I was a lad, Old Shep was a pup
     G7                     C       G7 
Over hills and meadows we'd stray
       C           A7           D
Just a boy and his dog, we were both full of fun
   G7                    C    C7
We grew up together that way
    F          F7          C
I remember the time at the old swimming hole
     C            A13            D7     G7
When I would have drowned beyond doubt
     C             A7            D
Old Shep was right there, to the rescue he came
   G7                           C
He jumped in and helped pull me out

[Verse 2]
       C              A7        D9           D7
As the years fast did roll, Old Shep he grew old
    G7                     C     G7 
His eyes were fast growing dim
    C           A7            D
And one day the doctor looked at me and said
  G7                     C    C7
I can do no more for him Jim
     F               F7           C
With hands that were trembling, I picked up my gun
    C           A7              D7     G7
And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
       C             A7       D9        D7
But  I just couldn't do it, I wanted to run
  G7                           C
I wished they would shoot me instead.

[Verse 3]
   C          A7       D
He came to my side and looked up at me
   G7                     C      G7 
He laid his poor head on my knee
  C                 A7      D
I stroked the best friend a man ever had
  G7                          C    C7
I cried 'til I scarcely could see
    F            F7             C
Old Shep, he has gone where the good doggies go
   C             A7          D7     G7
No more with Old Shep will I roam
       C           A7              D9          D7
But if dogs have a heaven, there's one thing I know
    G7                   C
Old Shep has a wonderful home.
