Song: Gonna Shine Up My Boots Band: Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans Album: Five Dollar Bill Label: Stony Plain Records Written and Performed By: Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans Tabbed and Chorded By: ultimatelefty I believe this is actually the first song I ever heard from Corb, it got me hooked right away! He's been known to play this song with a capo, but the studio version actually doesn't have one.The song is mostly just a switch between C and G with many dynamic changes, but it's a pretty easy and fun song. I tried tabbing out the solo, I'm not sure how close it is to being correct, but I'm up for corrections! Please rate, comment, and enjoy!! Chords: C: 332010 G: 320033 C
CI'm gonna shine up my boots I'm gonna Ggo into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
I'm gonna throw it Caround I'm gonna buy me a dance First lovely Glady that I see
And when our dance is through
I'll say "Will you mCarry me?" CI'm gonna shine up my boots I'm gonna Ggo into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
I'm gonna throw it Caround I'm gonna find me a game Of Ghold 'em if I can
And fold 'em all night long
Till I got me a Chand CI'm gonna buy us a ranch With a Gpalomino herd
And I won't mean no harm, babe
And I won't say a Cword When Misery comes to call I'll Ggive to him my life
I'll set with him awhile
And share my horse, my home, my Cwife
