(Capo on 2)

(Intro.)
|(G) / / / |(D/F#) / (C)
 
(Verse 1)
Dogs in our (G)twenties, they don't miss a (D/F#)thing
Boxes up the (Em)staircase, mattress on the (D)floor
Dreaming out the (C)window, waiting by the (G)door
Dogs in our (G)twenties don't always get a (D/F#)yard
They put up with the (Em)first time, figuring it (G)out
Every little (C)mistake, every different (G)town
 
(Pre-Chorus 1)
Always (D)there for all the long nights and the (C)tears
All the (D)change and wild and crazy in those (C) years...
 
(Chorus 1)
(C)All you ever wanted was (G)love
(D)All I ever wanted was (Em)more (D)time
(C)Even when we didn't have (G)much
You (D)stayed by my side
(C) We grow up (G) together
(B) I don't know (Em)why... (D)
(C)Dogs in our twenties can't (D)live our whole lives...
 
(Verse 2)
(NC)Dogs in our (G)twenties, help you pick your (D/F#)friends
The good ones and the (Em)bad ones, they can always (D)tell
Know you even (C)better, than you know yourself
Dogs in our (G)twenties, they teach you how to (D/F#)trust
They teach you that for-(Em)giveness, takes a little (D)work
And when you gotta (C)let go, they teach you how to (D)hurt
 
(Chorus 2)
(C)All you ever wanted was (G)love
(D)All I ever wanted was (Em) more (D)time
(C)Even when we didn't have (G)much
You (D)stayed by my side
(C) We grow up (G) together
(B) I don't know (Em)why... (D)
(C)Dogs in our twenties can't (D)live our whole lives (G)
 
(Bridge)
Oh, and (Em)I just wanna (D)thank you
For the (G)years you had my (G)back
(Am) You were the best (G/B)friend I ever had... (C)
 
(Chorus 3)
(C)All you ever wanted was (G)love
(D)All I ever wanted was (Em) more (D)time
(C)Even when we didn't have (G)much
You (D)stayed by my side
(C) We grow up (G) together
(B) I don't know (Em)why... (D)
(C)Dogs in our twenties can't (D)live our whole lives... (Em) (D/F#)
Why (G)can't (C)dogs in our twenties (D)live our whole lives? - - -
