Dog

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well My Dog Wears a Path On the Same Line

And Lately I'm Thinking I Might Take His Advice

Yeah Yeah

Cause He Sees Through the Fence and He Thinks I'm Free

Well, My Brain and His Chain Look the Same to Me

All Alone in a Cage with a Headrest

There's a Thing I Could Get Off of My Chest

Cause I

Want to Wear the Path That's True

And I

Want to Wear the Path With You

Out On the Cold Off the Leash Four Years Or More

I Don't Even Know What It Was I Was Waiting For

Well Maybe I Barked Up the Wrong Tree

That Was Then, Now I'm Back

Won't You See Me?

Cause I

Want to Wear the Path That's True

And I

Want to Wear the Path With You

Oh It's True

I Used to Be Afraid of Growing Old

And Hanging Around the Same Old Place

But I Got Older Anyway

So Won't You

So Won't You

So Won't You Brush My Fears Away

My Dog Wears a Path and That's a Good Sign

Cause My Dog Wears a Path On the Same Line

(Same Line)

All Alone in This Cage With a Headrest

There's a Thing I Should Get Off My Off Chest

(I Could Get Off of My Chest)

Buy a House, Go to Work in the Same Car

Feed the Dog, Put Our Teeth in the Same Jar

Want to Tell You That I

Want to Wear the Path That's True

And I

Want to Wear the Path With You

And I

Want to Wear the Path That's True

(You There?)

(Yeah)

(What'cha Doing?)

(You Didn't Even Say Hello)

(Hello)

(Haha, That's Not Normal Way to Answer Your Phone)

(Well There's a Lot of Ways to Answer the Phone)

(You Could Say Goos..)

(You Just Picked It Up and Didn't Say Anything, "Are You There?"

(I'm Sorry)

(What Are You Doing?")

(Making a Record)

(You're a Qumkwat)

(We Were Doing a Vocal Track, You Are All Over It Now)

(Oh Great)
