[INTRO]
[Aadd9/D] [A] [E] [B]
[VERSE]
In these b[E]oots
I have run through s[Dsus2]treets of B[A]rooklyn
C[B]ouldn't get a cab to save my l[E]ife [B]
S[E]even blocks down, s[Dsus2]eventeen [A]over
H[B]ad to catch my breath when I a[E]rrived [B]
In these b[E]oots
I stood, [Dsus2]tall and ne[A]rvous
Ho[B]ping she would see me in the d[E]oor [B]
A [E]light embrace, a [Dsus2]cup of co[A]ffee
F[B]riendly conversation nothing m[E]ore [E]
In these b[E]oots
I turned [Dsus2]on a di[A]me
And f[B]ell in love as hard as I c[E]an [B]
And in these [E]boots
I tried to [Dsus2]keep my b[A]alance
[B]As the shadows fell across the [E]land
[REFRAIN]
[A]I may never take 'em [B]off, there's [E]too much ground to c[A]ross
[A]Too much mud and [B]concrete, [E]broken glass and [A]frost
I[C#m] went barefoot when [B]I was young, a[E]nd the world was [A]soft
No[A]w I got these boots all b[B]roken in and I m[A]ay never [B]take 'em [E]off
[INTERLUDE]
[E] [D] [A] [E]
[E] [D] [A] [E] [B]
[VERSE]
[E]There was a touch of [Dsus2]hesitati[A]on
[B]They cost too much to not think it th[E]rough [B]
But I'm [E]glad I went ahead and [Dsus2]spent the [A]money
The [B]road got pretty treacherous soon af[E]ter [B]
In these [E]boots
I watched the [Dsus2]sun esca[A]pe me
And [B]let the rainfall soak me where I st[E]ood [B]
And in these [E]boots
I helped my [Dsus2]brother [A]bury
[B]His doberman of 12 years in the w[E]oods
[REFRAIN]
[A]I may never take 'em [B]off, there's [E]too much ground to c[A]ross
[A]Too much mud and [B]concrete, [E]broken glass and [A]frost
I[C#m] went barefoot when [B]I was young, a[E]nd the world was [A]soft
No[A]w I got these boots all [B]broken in and I m[A]ay never [B]take 'em [E]off
[INTERLUDE]
[E] [D] [A] [E] [B]
[VERSE]
I wound [E]up
Alone, [Dsus2]rattled and [A]worn out
H[B]eld in a cell I helped to build and pa[E]int [B]
And I la[E]ced them up,
[Dsus2]Tight bef[A]ore I
K[B]icked the bolted door right out the fr[E]ame [B]
In these b[E]oots
I stopped, [Dsus2]braced my [A]body
A[B]nd let the love run right into m[E]e [B]
And we [E]got all tangled [Dsus2]up toget[A]her
And w[B]alked the streets of Little It[E]aly
And we [E]got all tangled [Dsus2]up toget[A]her
And w[B]alked the streets of Little It[A]aly [E]
