Sometimes.. the storm clouds seem dark.. feels like there's no hope

All you gotta do, is BELIEVE
VERSE 1:
GWhen I was 16, our Dfarm burned down
my Emdaddy took to drinkin, all Cover town
GI raised my brothers in the Dold motel
Went from lEmivin in Heaven, to sCtarvin in hellllll
And Dthen one day I heard a Gknock at the door
I Emopened it up, and saw a Cboot on the Dflooooooooor!!
CHORUS:
It was the wishin Gboooooot
The wishin Dboooooot
The lEmittle black boot that makes your dreams come tCruuue!
It was the wishin Gboooooot,
It was full of Dfoooood,
EmWhen you're in nDeed.. just bCelieeeeeve,
In the wishin Gboot....
VERSE 2:
GWhen I was young, no one tDaught me wrong from right,
Started sEmtealin trucks by-day, and Chookin by niiiight,
GGoin nowhere fast, in a Done-horse town,
Shot a Emjohn in Amarillo, and they Ctook me dooOOooown...
DI was in jail facin G20 to life,
Til the Emwarden said there's a visitor here
CWho wants to say DhiiiiiIIIIIII!!
CHORUS:
It was the wishin Gbooooooot!
The wishin Dbooooooot!
It Empaid my bail and bought me a new Csuuuuit..
Cuz that boot could Gsee... see the good in Dmeeee
EmNext day-by daDwn, it was gCoooooone...
The wishin Gbooooot....
VERSE 3:
I was Gworkin in the barn, with my Dold dog Jake,
When the Emwishin boot appeared, and I thought, tChis is a mistake
I Gwalked up to the boot to say, eDverything's alright,
Then the Emboot pulled out a knife, and Cthreatened my liiiife.
DThis was not the wishin boot - Git was a fake.
And Emsuddenly my good ole dog Cbegan to change sDhaaaape!
CHORUS:
It was the wishin Gboooot!
The real wishin Dbooooot!
The Emwhole dang time the dog had been the Cboooot.
The wishin Gboooooot! Beautiful and Dtruuuuue!
EmYou're so much Cmore than a Dbooooooooot!
You're the wishin Gboot...
BRIDGE: (Key Change to Em?) - Same chords but different progression
The wiEmshin boot is a Cboot and it's there when you Dneed it!!
Don't Emask what it knows what it Cknows but just take what it Dgives youuuu!
And Dneverrr let it Cgooooo OOODOOOO!!
CHORUS: (Back to key of G)
It's the wishin Gboooooot!!
Just believe it's Dtruuuuue!
It's Emhope in the form of a little ole' dirty Cboooot.
The wishin Gbooooot!
The boot is Dyouuuuuu!
EmTell all your Dfriends 'bout the bCoooot....
The wishin Gboot..
OUTRO: Play/speak softly
