[Intro]

| F | C | % | % | x2

[Verse 1]

F                                        C
You see these work boots in my hands, they'll probably fit you now my son
Bb                C            Dm         Gm  Gm7               C7
Take them, they're a gift from me, why don't you try them on?
F                                       C
It would do your old man good to see you walking in these boots one day
Bb                    C       Dm             Gm          C7    C             F
And take your place among the men who work upon the slipway

[Chorus]

           C                             F
These dead man's boots, though they're old and curled
             Bb                                   F
When a feller needs a job and a place in the world
Bb                          C          Dm           Gm  
And it's time for a man to put down roots
        C7                                C
And walk to the river in his old man's boots

[Verse 2]

F                                             C
He said, "I'm nearly done and asking this, that you do one final thing for me
            Bb       C       Dm   Gm             Gm7                      C
You're barely but a sapling, and you think that you're a tree
F                                            C
If you need a seed to prosper, you must first put down some roots
        Bb           C            Dm  Gm          C                F
Just one foot then the other in these dead man's boots"

[Ulangi Chorus]
