Max pupper

Intro - acoustic guitar, mandolin

Verse 1

A little shadow at the door

Wagging tail, wanting more

A tiny bark, a happy sound

My Max, the best dog around.

Your long body, close to the ground

With every step, my heart you bound.

A gentle welcome, bright and true

My first memory, always of you.

Chorus

Oh Max pupper, my loyal friend

Sixteen years, right to the end

You filled my life with joy and light

My precious boy, morning and night.

Verse 2

When day would fade, and shadows grew

My favorite place was next to you.

We'd settle down, close and near

Watching the screen, banishing fear.

Your little head upon my lap

A peaceful, quiet, loving nap.

Those gentle moments, calm and deep

Secrets the evening loved to keep.

Chorus

Oh Max pupper, my loyal friend

Sixteen years, right to the end

You filled my life with joy and light

My precious boy, morning and night.

Bridge

Though time may pass, and seasons turn

A love like ours will always burn.

My whisper soft, across the blue

"I will always love you."

"Say hi to everyone up there for me, my dear"

Your spirit close, banishing all fear.

Instrumental - mandolin, acoustic guitar

Final Chorus

Oh Max pupper, my loyal friend

Sixteen years, right to the end

You filled my life with joy and light

My precious boy, morning and night.

Outro

Now you're running free and bright

Playing with family, in heaven's light.

With happy barks and joyful leaps

While my heart remembers, and gently keeps.

A quiet sleep, a peaceful sigh

Beneath an endless, loving sky.

Outro - guitar fade
