Verse 1
F
Bb
Gilbert was just 18 years of age
F
when he first took himself a wife.
But she proved to be unfaithful,
G
so the swag and open
C
robe became his life.
F
He turned bitter against all women,
only used them when he could.
Bb
And he only had contempt
F
Bb
F
for other men
Bb
He worked and drank and
F
wandered all alone
Except for one,
Bb
F
C
F
a mangy old blue -heeler for a friend
Bb
Years ago old Gilbert found a puppy
F
by the roadside left to die
Hungry and frightened,
G
nearly frozen
C
beneath the frosty southern sky,
F
Gilbert picked him up and raised him,
and a bond of friendship grew,
Bb
a friendship that was never
F
known to bend.
Bb
Then one day Gilbert woke to find
F
his old track mate was gone
Bb
F
C
And he began a search that never was to
F
Bb
C
end
Bb
F
Bb
C
F
Gilbert used to work a while
Bb
F
and then he'd go to town on one big spree
It was the only way he knew
G
C
to ease the pain of hurtful memories
F
So in a coastal town
while Gilbert drank away his cares
Bb
His old dog was impounded
F
there and so
Bb
When they couldn't find its owner,
F
the dog was put to sleep,
Bb
C
and perhaps it's best if
F
Gilbert never knows.
Gilbert roamed from town to town,
Bb
still searching for the friend
C
he'd never find.
F
It was the final blow from fate
G
that really turned the old
C
man's twisted mind.
F
He was ridiculed in bar rooms,
he was laughed at in the streets,
Bb
Still searching for his friend
C
across the land,
Bb
F
Bb
Till someone found him dead one day
F
beneath a table in a park,
Bb
C
With a collar and a chain
F
D
clutched in his hand.
