BEFORE MY DOG

As recorded by Robyn Ottolini

(2026 release)

Capo 1st fret

Intro

[G]

Verse 1

[G] [C] [G]

Before my dog, there was no hair on my clothes

[C] [G]

Didn't have a reason to head home

[D]

Before the last call lights came on

[G]

Before my dog

[C] [G]

Bark was something that grew on trees

[C] [G]

I was never tied to a leash

[D]

And nights like these we're way more lonely

[Am7] [G]

Now I'll get 14 years if I'm lucky

[C]

Ya, she'll get me through my twenties

Chorus

[G] [C]

But if I die before my dog

[Em] [D] [G]

The treats are in the kitchen cupboard

[C]

Make her sit even when she's stubborn

[G] [C]

Let her head hang out the window

[Em] [D]

She loves her ears blowing in the wind

[G] [C]

Take her to my parents, last house on the left

[Am7] [G/B]

If all dogs go to heaven

[C] [D] [G]

Tell her I'm trying every trick I know to get in

Verse 2

[G]

And then I'll sit and wait

[C] [G]

For her to run through the pearly gates

[C] [G]

A field of clouds with squirrels to chase

[D]

For once I won't worry about her fur going gray

[G]

God's best friend

[C] [G]

She'll lick the faces of all the angels

[C] [G] [D]

Grandpa will be finally be able to feed her from the table once again

[Am7] [G/B]

I'm so sorry for every sin

[C]

I hope I make it up in the end

Chorus

[G] [C]

But if I die before my dog

[Em] [D] [G]

The treats are in the kitchen cupboard

[C]

Make her sit even when she's stubborn

[G] [C]

Let her head hang out the window

[Em] [D]

She loves her ears blowing in the wind

[G] [C]

Take her to my parents, last house on the left

[Am7] [G/B]

If all dogs go to heaven

[C] [D] [G]

Tell her I'm trying every trick I know to get in

[C] [Em] [D/F#] [C]

I'm trying every trick I taught her to get in

Bridge

[Am7] [G/B] [C]

And I hope one day she doesn't wonder where I went

[Am7] [G/B] [C] [D]

But if I know her, there's no fence that'll keep her in if she's following my scent

[Out-Chorus]

[G] [C]

So if I die before my dog

[Em] [D] [G]

The treats are in the kitchen cupboard

[C]

Make her sit even when she's stubborn

[G] [C]

Let her head hang out the window

[Em] [D]

She loves her ears blowing in the wind

[G] [C]

Take her to my parents, last house on the left

[Am7] [G/B]

If all dogs go to heaven

[C] [D]

Tell her I'm trying every trick I know

[Am7] [G/B]

If all dogs go to heaven

[C] [D] [G] [Am7]

Tell her I'm trying every trick I know to get in
