Text w/ chords:

verse 1:

E A E

She marked our trail up by the backbone ridge.

C#m H E

How many times can one dog pee?

E A E

(she) Keeps me high as an eagle, when I'm on the skids.

C#m H E

I guess she gotta come down eventually.

Chorus:

A E H E

Buddy I could'a gone that extra mile.

A E H E

For an extra bark, or an extra smile.

E H C#m

I never felt so free,

C#m H E

It was just my dog and me.

[Brigde]

Verse 2:

E A E

Then she gives me that look, like she'd lay down her life.

C#m H E

No doubt she would in a minute, man.

E A E

She'd face the bullet, oh she'd face the knife.

C#m H E

Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan.

Chorus:

A E H E

Now she's runnin' up ahead to chase some deer.

A E H E

Comes back to tell me that the coast is cleared.

E H C#m

It's a different world I see,

C#m H E

when it's just my dog and me.

E C#m

There's a rabbit on the run.

E C#m

Man and beast and sky and sun.

Chorus:

E H C#m

Who's talking to the birds in the trees?

C#m H E

Why it's just my dog and me.

[Slide solo in E tonality]

Verse 3:

E A E

Now it looks like we've been makin' tracks,

C#m H E

from the crack of dawn 'till the end of the day.

E A E

So its nice and easy down the devil's back.

C#m H E

She wouldn't know any other way.

Chorus:

A E H E

Now it's over that ridge for one last mile,

A E H E

then we're fast asleep by the fireside.

E H C#m

Dreamin' these dreams for free.

C#m H E

Yeah it's just my dog and me.

Ending:

E H C#m

I never felt so free.

C#m H E

It was just my dog and me.
