Sometimes You Gotta Wear Boots

B G#m F# G#m D#7 G#m
Some days the road is easy, all you need are some walking shoes
Other days you’re negotiating in heels and business suits
Other days you’re feeling breezy, only bare toes will do
But when your heart gets broke, you gotta wear boots
E B F# G#m E B F# D#7 F#m
You gotta wear boots when it’s time to saddle up your courage
Boots to keep your feet down in the stirrups
Boots to drive the heartache right out of town
Boots when it’s time wrangle all your sorrows
Boots to keep you moving on past tomorrow
Oh, sometimes you gotta wear boots
Some days you’re jumping up in your high-tops with good news
Other days you can barely move and only slippers see you through
Other days you’re out there waltzing in your fancy dancing shoes
But when your heart gets broke, you gotta wear boots
