ralph mctell – old brown dog 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
