[Verse 1]
   D                    G
My old man's shoes were steel toed boots
A                 D
Ripped up rawhide leather
G                          D
  Seams splittin' like the Red sea
   D
So duct tape held 'em together
     D                     G                        A          D
They worn more tread than a Firestone underneath a '65 Fastback Ford
G                   D
Size 12 wide, spent Saturday nights
        A
Cuttin' rug on a bar room floor
 
 
[Chorus]
             G                             D
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
    A                          D
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
G                   D
Might not look like much to you
          A
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
             G                    D
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
         A                      Bm
But they made him workin' class happy
    A      G                             A                    D      C  G
And I'd be lucky, I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots
 
 
[Verse 2]
     D                   G                    A                    D
They didn't bring home a fortune, but we were fortunate doin' just fine
   G                 D                   A
Sunrise to bed, they kept us fed and the lights on most the time
D                             G                  A                    D
Some out of joint rips on the laces, scuffed up, scarred from heel to toe
       G                    D                A
Looked twice their age on a good day, broken in don't even come close
 
 
[Chorus]
             G                             D
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
    A                          D
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
G                   D
Might not look like much to you
          A
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
             G                    D
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
         A                      Bm
But they made him workin' class happy
    A      G                             A                    D      C  G
And I'd be lucky, I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots

[Bridge]
     D                   G
They didn't bring home a fortune
            A                        D
But we were fortunate for doing just fine
 
 
[Chorus]
N.C.         G                             D
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
    A                          D
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
G                   D
Might not look like much to you
          A
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
             G                    D
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
         A                      Bm
But they made him workin' class happy
    A      G                             A                    D      C  Bm G
And I'd be lucky, I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots
             D     C   D G   D*
My old man's boots
