Lyrics
That old brown dog sleeps in the rain, F G Amin F Unless the sun has shone. F C G That old brown dog is all alone, F G Amin F Since Old Bill been gone. F C G And sleeping in the rain F C Only gives a dog a bad name. Amin F If Bill were alive C F Well I know he would decide C F To have the same thing done. F G - That old brown dog he smells so bad, F G Amin F Say the people from the town. F C G That old brown dog is almost lame, F G Amin F Someone should put him down. F C G It would be an act of kindness, F C You know it's for the best. Amin F You bring a rope, bring a gun, C F And it'll all be over C F Before the dog can guess. F G - Could an old brown dog have become wise F G Amin F Guessed they were all after him. F C G His hearing was failing, and his eyes F G Amin F Were fast growing dim. F C G On the day they came to kill him F C He sensed a rabbit on a log. Amin F Did anybody see a rabbit C F Chased across the meadows C F By an old brown dog. F G - That old brown dog, tail wagging, F G Amin F As he laid himself down. F C G It did not seam to matter, F G Amin That the rabbit had long gone to ground. F C G And there in the summer heat, F C His old heart ceased to beat. Amin F And high above the meadow C F The skylarks singing C F As the spark went out. F G
