Old Blue

	  		
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 

 
C       Am 
Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, you 
C       Am   
Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, 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 

 
C       Am 
Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, you 
C       Am   
Bye-bye blue 
F             C 
You good dog, 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 


C       Am 
Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, you 
C       Am   
Bye-bye blue

Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, you 
C       Am   
Bye-bye blue 
F            C 
You good dog, you
