Timothy Seth Avett As Darling - In these boots

In these b^Eoots I have run through s^Dsus2treets of B^Arooklyn C^Bouldn't get a cab to save my l^Eife ^B S^Eeven blocks down, s^Dsus2eventeen ^Aover H^Bad to catch my breath when I a^Errived ^B In these b^Eoots I stood, ^Dsus2tall and ne^Arvous Ho^Bping she would see me in the d^Eoor ^B A ^Elight embrace, a ^Dsus2cup of co^Affee F^Briendly conversation nothing m^Eore ^E

In these b^Eoots I turned ^Dsus2on a di^Ame And f^Bell in love as hard as I c^Ean ^B And in these ^Eboots I tried to ^Dsus2keep my b^Aalance ^BAs the shadows fell across the ^Eland

^AI may never take 'em ^Boff, there's ^Etoo much ground to c^Aross ^AToo much mud and ^Bconcrete, ^Ebroken glass and ^Afrost I^C#m went barefoot when ^BI was young, a^End the world was ^Asoft No^Aw I got these boots all b^Broken in and I m^Aay never ^Btake 'em ^Eoff

^EThere was a touch of ^Dsus2hesitati^Aon ^BThey cost too much to not think it th^Erough ^B But I'm ^Eglad I went ahead and ^Dsus2spent the ^Amoney The ^Broad got pretty treacherous soon af^Eter ^B In these ^Eboots I watched the ^Dsus2sun esca^Ape me And ^Blet the rainfall soak me where I st^Eood ^B And in these ^Eboots I helped my ^Dsus2brother ^Abury ^BHis doberman of 12 years in the w^Eoods

^AI may never take 'em ^Boff, there's ^Etoo much ground to c^Aross ^AToo much mud and ^Bconcrete, ^Ebroken glass and ^Afrost I^C#m went barefoot when ^BI was young, a^End the world was ^Asoft No^Aw I got these boots all ^Bbroken in and I m^Aay never ^Btake 'em ^Eoff

I wound ^Eup Alone, ^Dsus2rattled and ^Aworn out H^Beld in a cell I helped to build and pa^Eint ^B And I la^Eced them up, ^Dsus2Tight bef^Aore I K^Bicked the bolted door right out the fr^Eame ^B In these b^Eoots I stopped, ^Dsus2braced my ^Abody A^Bnd let the love run right into m^Ee ^B And we ^Egot all tangled ^Dsus2up toget^Aher And w^Balked the streets of Little It^Ealy And we ^Egot all tangled ^Dsus2up toget^Aher And w^Balked the streets of Little It^Aaly ^E
