Verse 1
E
A
E
(Tige you were faithful
A
E
faithful to the end
B
A
Tige now I miss you you were
Three years of Army Service done
A
and I was headin' home at last
E
I got to thinking bout my dog and
B
things long gone and passed
How old Tige pulled me from the creek
when I had no pulse or breath
F#
How he saved me from the chargin'
B
E
bull that gored my Dad to death
As a kid I'd dream of bears
and tremble to my toes
A
Till old Tige come up to my bed and
B
Then my fears would melt away
and Tige would go lie down
I'd drift on back to sleep without
A
E
another sound
The big bus stopped I got off it was
awful dark and thick with fog
A
Then something gently nuzzled
E
me and there stood Tige my dog
B
I wondered if my faithful dog
had met the bus each day
F#
And all the dreary winter nights
E
Have Tige meet me here like this
I was I was really glad
Cause I hadn't needed Tige so much
A
since the day they'd burried Dad
E
Two long miles still lay ahead
A giant Dam was being built
A
where the old road used to go
E
I thank the Lord for sending Tige and
I followed where he led
Knowing well without his help
that I'd be good as dead
A
Tige inched along this way and
E
that going rough and slow
A
B
And I could hear the water lappin' at
the ledges far below
F#
Then through the mist I saw a light
B
and mother in her chair
E
And I reached down to pet old Tige
but he wasn't there
A
I'm thankful Mom you had
old Tige these three lonely years
E
B
I owe my life to him tonight I
couldn't help my tears
A
You say you wrote me bout the Dam
E
well God was sure with us
I didn't get your letter Mom
but old Tige met the bus
A
I hate to tell you son she said but
B
When you left it broke his heart Tige
E
(You were my best friend)
