[Verse 1]
            A
I said, I'm sitting here watching matchbox holding my clothes
            D                                         A
I said, I'm sitting here wonder'n matchbox holding my clothes
        E             D                  A   E
I ain't got no matches but a long way to go

[Chorus]
             A
Well, let me be your little dog 'till your big dog comes
             D                                     A
Well, let me be your little dog 'till your big dog comes
              E                D
And when your big dog gets here
                        A     E
Watch how your puppy dog runs

I'm an old poor boy a long way from home
