Blind Boy's Dog

C                          F     D7 
I gave my dog to Uncle Sam in 1943 

G7                           C 
He sailed across the sea and died for liberty 

                                     F                 D7 
Now that you are sending hero's home I just can't understand 

G7                                   C 
Why don't you send my dog home Uncle Sam 


     G7                               C 
It's true no more he'll lead me as he did in days of yore 

      D7                            G7 
He'll never be a blind boy's pal no more 

C                                         F               D7 
But I know that he gets lonesome sleeping in some distant land 

G7                                      C 
Please won't you send my dog home Uncle Sam 


                              F                 D7 
I gave my dog to Uncle Sam he was so strong and smart 

G7                                C 
We knew right from the start that we should do our part 

                                F          D7 
They wrote he died a hero t'was in the telegram 

G7                                      C 
Please won't you send my dog home Uncle Sam 


      G7                            C 
He'll sleep beneath Old Glory right here on daddy's farm 

     D7                               G7 
I'll be close by to keep him from all harm 

C                                    F                   D7 
No one knows how much I miss him and how lonesome now am I 

G7                                      C 
Please won't you send my dog home Uncle Sam
