Tuning: D G D G B D
From "I Started Out With Nothin and I Still Got Most Of It Left", 2008
Tabbed by Ben Spiller
Played on red "Three-String Trance Wonder" electric guitar, which is tuned to GGB.
Also works well on a 6-string in Open G tuning (as it's an open tuning, the additional strings sound pretty
fine if hit accidentally). With a reasonable amount of overdrive.

[Intro]
Riff x 4, on 3rd time: Whoa, I miss my dog, yes I...
[Verse 1]
He was a friend of mine
Everyday for him, yeah just fine
In the morn' he ready to go
It didn't really matter just out the door
[Chorus]
He was,
Yeah surely he was
Well, he was,
Mmm
[Verse 2]
I wish I could find a friend like him
Faithful like a dog until the end
They don't make many people like that
I'd surely like to meet one, and that's a fact
[Chorus 2]
He was,
My one true
Yes he was my one true
My one true

We just been takin' a walk, kinda like this

Yes, that he was my one true
Yes, that he was my one true
Yes, that he was my one true
Alright
He was my one true friend
He was my one true friend
Yes he was my one true friend
He was
[Outro - no guitar]
...my one true friend
He was my one true friend
He was my one true friend
He was my one true friend
Yes he was my one true friend
Well you know my boy
Yes he was my one true friend
