Intro: C G Em C
[C] [G] [D] [C]
[C] God is a wild old d[G]og
[Em] Someone left out on the h[C]ighway
I seen him running b[G]y me
He don't bel[D]ong to no one n[G]ow
[C] We dropped him out on [G]93
[D] Mange was setting in on his h[C]ips and on his knees
Between the highways running n[G]orth and south
[D] We pulled on over and we[C] put him out
Willie said he was old and go[G]ing blind
[D] Momma told me how she[C] didn't mind
When Willie kicked him with h[G]is shoe
He just cl[D]imbed on in just l[C]ike he knew
[C] God is a wild old d[G]og
[Em] Someone left out on the h[C]ighway
I seen him running b[G]y me
He don't bel[D]ong to no one n[G]ow
[C] It's lonely on the h[Em]ighway
Sometimes a he[G]art can turn to d[D]ust
Get whittled down to n[C]othing
Broken down and c[Em]rushed
In with the b[C]ones of
Wild old d[D]ogs
Wild old d[C]ogs
[C] [G] [Em] [C]
[C] [G] [D] [C]
We dropped him out on [G]93
[D] Tall grass was waving there just l[C]ike the sea
He tore off running like we'd [G]set him free
Just d[D]isappeared right in fr[C]ont of me
[C] God is a wild old d[G]og
[Em] Someone left out on the h[C]ighway
I seen him running b[G]y me
He don't bel[D]ong to no one n[C]ow
He don't bel[D]ong to no one n[G]ow
