Intro 
D    Bm    G    D 



[Verso 1]
 
    D 
12 years of life paw packed her up 
Bm 
In the back of that U-Haul truck 
       Gmaj7                         D 
Didn't know a soul in his brand new home town 

       D 
For a month or so it was really hard 
        Bm 
Then a black Lab wandered in the yard 
      G                                       D 
Next thing you know they were hanging out to sundown 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
       Em7 
They'd wade the creeks, he'd shake dry 
F#m/A# 
Run back home behind his back 
 G                                         A 
Years flew by and that dog was right there by his side 
 


[Refrão]
 
      G 
Well all the faces all the names 
          A 
Are like box cars on a passing train 
         D            A/C#                 Bm7  A 
They're here and in a flash they're gone again 

     G 
You blink your eyes they'd come and go 
      A 
Like footprints in the fallen snow 
       Bm7                A             G        D/F# 
Do you down to go as you count on just one minute 
       Em7 
In the end 
              A        D       Bm7 
You just get one best friend 
 


[Verso 2]
 
           D 
Yeah, you ride around in that pickup bed 
Bm7 
Wag his tail and shake his head 
      G                                D 
Thye kept the dust kicked up on those dirt roads 

         D 
On that Scholarship the state came through 
     Bm 
That dog jumped in like it always do 
        G                                 D 
Didn't seem to understand why he couldn't go 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
     Em7 
That hole they placed in that college town 
D/F# 
When the windians rolled around 
      G                                 A 
He'd point that old green Chevy back toward the house 
 


[Refrão]
 
      G 
Well all the faces all the names 
          A 
Are like box cars on a passing train 
         D            A/C#                 Bm7  A 
They're here and in a flash they're gone again 

     G 
You blink your eyes they'd come and go 
      A 
Like footprints in the fallen snow 
       Bm7                A             G        D/F# 
Do you down to go as you count on just one minute 
       Em7 
In the end 
              A        D 
You just get one best friend 
 


[Ponte]
 
    G 
He drove all night when he got the news 
 G 
Dad said son it's up to you 
         D                 A/C#           Bm7 
The boy knew it was best to do what best friends do 
           Em7 
Sit by his side 
         D/F# 
And held him tight 
          A         A 
And said goodbye
