The Little Boot - Ver 2

G D A D D A D I was lookin' through memories today G D At all the bits and pieces I've picked up on the way G D Each one reminds me of a different place and time A D Like the little boot I bought for John Prine D A D There's a wind-up gramophone from long ago G D It wasn't working when I bought it, always meant to make it go G D Never got round to it, it always slips my mind A D Like the little boot I bought for John Prine G D Just a little red boot, hangs on a Christmas tree A I found it down on Broadway in Nashville Tennessee G D Thought I'd give it to him if I met him down the line A D The little boot I bought for John Prine D A D It was many years ago as I recall G D I'd just arrived in town, knew noone at all G D I saw so many things there that brought me back in time A D Like the little boot I bought for John Prine D A D And those streets had seen better men than me G D Willie, Hank and Johnny, the King and Jerry Lee G D There was old bones and drifters that time had left behind A D Like the little boot I bought for John Prine G D Just a little red boot, hangs on a Christmas tree A I found it down on Broadway in Nashville Tennessee G D Thought I'd give it to him if I met him down the line A D The little boot I bought for John Prine G D A D D A D It was made back in the '50s I would say G D You know it's not the same, the way they make them nowadays G D It looks so sweet and wholesome, like a Childhood Christmas time A D Like the little boot I bought for John Prine G D Just a little red boot, hangs on a Christmas tree A I found it down on Broadway in Nashville Tennessee G D Thought I'd give it to him if I met him down the line A D The little boot I bought for John Prine G D A D
