verse 1: 
    E                       A        E 
She marked our trail up the backbone ridge. 
C#m                B   E 
How many times can one dog pee? 
E                                   A       E 
Keeps me high as an eagle, when I'm on the skids. 
            C#m        B            E 
I guess she gotta come down eventually. 

E     A         E         B     E 
Buddy I could'a gone that extra mile. 
       A     E           B     A 
For an extra bark, or an extra smile. 
      A       B       C#m 
Cause I never felt so free, 
       B       A       E 
It was just my dog and me. 


verse 2: 
         E                              A        E 
Then she gives me that look, like she'd lay down her life. 
   C#m                  B       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                   B      E 
Just to keep my butt from the fryin' pan.
