[INTRO]
[C]
[VERSE 1]
I had an old dog, and his name was blue
Bet you five dollars, he was a good dog too
[C]Blue chased a possum up a hollow limb
Possum won, got the best of him
[CHORUS]
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[VERSE 2]
[C]Blue he died, and he died so hard
He shook the ground in my backyard
[C]We lowered him down with a golden chain
Every link we'd call his name
[CHORUS]
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog, [C]you
[VERSE 3]
[C]My old blue was a good old hound
You could hear him holler for miles around
[C]When I get to heaven, first thing I'll do
I'll grab my horn and call old blue
[CHORUS]
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[CHORUS]
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
[C]Bye-bye [Am]blue
[F]You good dog,[C] you
