Buddy

Intro - acoustic guitar, banjo, light drums

Verse 1

The day we met, your tail did wag so fast,

A happy shadow, meant for us to last.

You'd bark at me, a gentle, joyful sound,

Or grab a pillow, when I was around.

A true Lab heart, with spirit bright and bold,

A precious story only our hearts could unfold.

Chorus

Oh, Buddy, Buddy, what a loyal friend,

For fifteen years, our journey had no end.

Your paw print etched upon my soul so deep,

The happy memories that I will always keep.

Verse 2

Each day with you, a gift I held so dear,

Always by my side, dispelling every fear.

From sunlit walks to quiet, cozy naps,

You filled my world, closing all the gaps.

A wagging tail, a happy, knowing gaze,

Through all our changing, bright and precious days.

Chorus

Oh, Buddy, Buddy, what a loyal friend,

For fifteen years, our journey had no end.

Your paw print etched upon my soul so deep,

The happy memories that I will always keep.

Bridge

I whisper now, as soft as morning dew,

My dearest Buddy, "I love him so much, it's true."

Your spirit dances, wild and strong and free,

A cherished part of all the best in me.

Banjo Solo

Final Chorus

Oh, Buddy, Buddy, what a loyal friend,

For fifteen years, our journey had no end.

Your paw print etched upon my soul so deep,

The happy memories that I will always keep.

Outro

Now running the fence line, with James by your side,

Or riding the golf cart, with nowhere to hide.

Forever free, beneath a sky so vast,

My sweet Buddy, your love will always last.

Outro - acoustic guitar fade
