🎸 Verse 1:
Bb                                   Eb            Bb
My dear hard workin' daddy works his life away for us
                          C7              F7
That's the way that daddy shows to us his love
    Eb
And daddy's two hard working hands
                            Bb
They're callous and they're sore
    Eb              Bb                  F                Bb
And daddy's workin' boots have walked a million miles or more
                         Eb             Bb
As long as I remember, I remember Daddy workin'
                      C7            F
Workin' on the job or either on the farm
Eb                                       Bb
Trying to provide for the family that he loves
    Eb              Bb               F              Bb
And daddy's workin' boots have taken many steps for us

🎸 Chorus: 
F                          Eb            Bb
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation
       Eb                     Bb
Though just like him, they're tired and worn
    C7                   F
For years they've helped him stand
Eb                                          Bb
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation
Eb                        Bb          F7             Bb
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man

🎸 Verse 2:
     B                              E             B
Dear lord above, I know up there my daddy's got a mansion
                          Db        Gb
And a great reward that's long been overdue
    E                                               B
And when it comes my daddy's time to be with you in heaven
E                B                Gb
Won't ya let him walk your golden streets
             B
In a pair of brand new golden boots?

🎸 Chorus: 
Gb                         E             B
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation
       E                      B
Though just like him, they're tired and worn
    Db7                      Gb
For years they've helped him stand
E                                           B
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation
        E                 B           Gb             E
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
