The Boot chords by Halle Kearns

Tuning: Half-step down


♫ Verse:
     C                          F
Same bar, same beer, different night downtown
      G
Same John Wayne that you're always on the fence about
       C                                     F
We can sit, and drink, and dance around the truth again
             G
But I can't help but think about what my mama says


♫ Chorus:
             C                 Gm
If he don't walk the line keep walkin'
             C                              Gm
If he can't back the whiskey talk that he's talkin'
             G
If he's all hat and no cattle
     C
All snake no rattle

       C                          Gm
If he don't sweep you off your Luccheses
             C                        Gm
And if your "hell yeah" feels like a "maybe"
     G                              C
Ooh girl, there's only one thing to do

             C
Give him the boot
                  Gm
Just give him the boot
C                   Gm
  Just give him the boot


♫ Verse:
     C                            F
You call all the shots, but I'll shoot you straight
           G
Don't let just any cowboy take you away
        C                                F
If he's gonna give you heartache on the dance floor
      G
Then kick his chaps right out the door


♫ Chorus:
Gm            C                 Gm
If he don't walk the line keep walkin'
             C                              Gm
If he can't back the whiskey talk that he's talkin'
             G
If he's all hat and no cattle
     C
All snake no rattle

       C                          Gm
If he don't sweep you off your Luccheses
             C                        Gm
And if your "hell yeah" feels like a "maybe"
     G                              C
Ooh girl, there's only one thing to do

             C
Give him the boot
                  Gm
Just give him the boot
C                   Gm
  Just give him the boot


♫ Break:
            C                          Gm
If he don't love love love you the best
                  C                        Gm
There's plenty of wild wild wild in the west
            C                          Gm
If he don't love love love you the best
                  N.C.
There's plenty of wild wild wild in the west


♫ Chorus:
             C                 Gm
If he don't walk the line keep walkin'
             C                              Gm
If he can't back the whiskey talk that he's talkin'
             G
If he's all hat and no cattle
     C
All snake no rattle

       C                          Gm
If he don't sweep you off your Luccheses
             C                        Gm
And if your "hell yeah" feels like a "maybe"
     G                              C
Ooh girl, there's only one thing to do

             C
Give him the boot
                  Gm
Just give him the boot
C                   Gm    C   Gm   C
  Just give him the boot
