The Byrds         Fido      written by John York

A               D7     A               D7
Fido stayed all night, he would not go home
A              D7     A                     D7
I asked him to leave, I said I do not have a bone
A             D7       A             D7
I was feelin' lonesome sittin' by the phone
A          E               D7            A   E   D7  A   E D7 A
wide awake stayin' up late wishin' I was home
A               D7      A               D7
You were on the outside talking to some chick
A            D7      A              D7
I was on the inside feelin' mighty sick
A          D7      A               D7
Sleep is I wanted, you know what I got
A          E               D7            A   E D7  A   E  D7  A
wide awake stayin' up late wishin' I was not

SOLO

A           D7    A                   D7
Dogs had it made layin' 'round in the shade
A            D7          A              D7
Never had to worry about get there on time
A                D7     A               D7
I can't help but wonder what was on your mind
A                   D7            A                D7
Riding round in the pouring rain, havin' a heck of time
A             D7    A            D7
Livin' may be easy, dyin' may be hard
A                  E               D7         A     E  D7 A  E D7 A
But I'm wide awake stayin' up late sendin' my regards
