E                                 A              E
I used to know a drug dealer, his name was Billy Jack
    E                                   B                       E
The Mexican cartel cut his head off and he ain't comin' back
E                                  A              E
God knows I sure miss my buddy, he had some killer pot
     A                 E         B                    E
This old stray dog and Jesus are all the friends I've got


    E                          A                  E
The pain pill jar is empty, my Wild Irish Rose is gone
      E                                           B                    E
But I found a tube of model airplane glue and I'm getting' my buzz on
E                                   A                     E
Why's everybody judging me when the Good Book says "Judge not."
     A                 E         A                    E
This old stray dog and Jesus are all the friends I've got


[Chorus]
     A                          E
I've never felt so lonely, I've never been so blue
   A                                 E                  B
My world keeps getting smaller, it's down to the chosen few
  E                              A                E
I have not lost everything but I sure have lost a lot
     A                 E         B                    E
This old stray dog and Jesus are all the friends I've got


    E                           A             E
The Glory Road Recovery Home is where I now reside
     E                                B                    E
They gave me a King James bible and a sack of Purina Pride
          E                                         A                   E
There's a smoking section by a dead oak tree at the back of the parking lot
      A                E         B                    E
This old stray dog and Jesus are all the friends I've got


[Chorus]
     A                          E
I've never felt so lonely, I've never been so blue
   A                                 E                  B
My world keeps getting smaller, it's down to the chosen few
  E                              A                E
I have not lost everything but I sure have lost a lot
     A                 E         B                    E
This old stray dog and Jesus are all the friends I've got
