[A#m]I'm just a wa[G#]lkin' my d[F#]og
[F]Singin' my [Bbm]song
[C]Strollin' a[F]long
[A#m]Yeah it's jus[G#]t me and m[F#]y dog
[F]Catchin' so[Bbm]me sun
[C]We can't go[F] wrong
[A#m] [G#] [A#m] My life was lonely and blue
[A#m] [A] [G#] [G] [F#m] Yeah I was sad as a sailor
[F#m] [E] [F#m] I was an angry 'un too
[F#m] [F] [Em] [D#m] [Dm] Then there was...
...[Em]You ap[D]peared, when [C]I was ent[B]angled
With [Em]youth, and[D] fear, and [C]nerves Jingle [B]jangle
[Em]Vermouth and [D]beer Were gett[C]in' me mangle[B]d up
[Em] [D#m] [Em] But then I looked in your eyes
[Em] [Fm] [F#m] [Em] [F#m] And I was no more a failure
[Em] [D] [Em] You looked so wacky and wise
[Bb] [B] [C] [Bb] [C] And I said, lord I'm
Happy 'cause I'm [A#m]just a wal[G#]kin' my do[F#]g
[F]Singin' my so[Bbm]ng St[C]rollin' [F]along
[A#m]It's just m[G#]e and my d[F#]og C[F]atchin' some [Bbm]sun
[C]We can't go wr[F]ong
'cause[A#m] I don't [G#]care 'bout your [F#]hatin' and your d[F]oubt
And I [A#m]don't car[G#]e what the polit[F#]icians spo[F]ut
If you[A#m] wanna co[G#]mpanion Well just go ri[F#]ght to the[F] pound
And [F#]find yourself a h[F]ound
And[F#] make that doggie [F]proud
'cause that[F]'s what i[F#]t's all a[Bbm]bout
[A#m] [G#] [A#m] My life was tragic and sad
[A#m] [A] [G#] [F#] [G#] Yeah I was the archetypal loser
[F#m] [Em] [F#m] I was a pageant gone bad
[F#m] [Fm] [Em] [Dm] [Em] Then there was...
[Em]You on ti[D]me And w[C]agging your [B]tail
In the [Em]cutest m[D]ime And [C]you was in j[B]ail
I said [Em]woof, be [D]mine And you ga[C]ve a wa[B]il
[Em] [D] [Em] And then I was no longer alone
[Em] [Fm] [F#m] [Em] [F#m] And I was no more a boozer
[F#m] [Em] [F#m] We'll make the happiest home
[Em] [Fm] [Fm#] [Em] [F#m] And I said lord I'm...
Happy 'cause I'm [A#m]just a w[G#]alkin' my [F#]dog
[F]Singin' my [Bbm]song St[C]rollin' a[F]long
[A#m]It's jus[G#]t me and my d[F#]og
[F]Catchin' some [Bbm]sun We [C]can't go [F]wrong
'cause[A#m] I don't [G#]care 'bout your [F#]hatin' and your d[F]oubt
And I [A#m]don't car[G#]e what the polit[F#]icians spo[F]ut
If you[A#m] wanna co[G#]mpanion Well just go ri[F#]ght to the[F] pound
And [F#]find yourself a h[F]ound
And[F#] make that doggie [F]proud
'cause that[F]'s what i[F#]t's all a[Bbm]bout
