Song: Die With Your Boots On
writers: Toby Keith/Jim Femino
Album: How do you like me now
Lead guitar only on intro.
[D]Daddy was a gambler back in '[C]72
He had a [G]taste for the night life
And he l[Bb]oved his [C]booze
He had a [D]woman on one arm
And a [C]tattoo on the other
It was [G]hard to read I don't know what it [Bb]said
[C]Something about my [D]mother
I stood [D]over his shoulder back in [C]Bakersfield
He had some [G]rhinestone boots with those high [Bb]ridin' [C]heels
He [D]bet a ton of money on a [C]hand I thought was dead
When those [G]7's cleaned the table up[Bb]
He just [C]looked around and [D]said
Chorus:
[G]Sometimes you win
[D]Sometimes you won't
[A]Sometimes you beat that devil
[D]Sometimes you don't
[G]We're all just killin' time
[D]Til the good lord calls us home
[C]And the best that you can [G]hope for is
To [Bb]die [C] with your [D]boots on.
[D]I drive a big rig run from [C]shore to shore
I've got a [G]woman beside me
and my [Bb]name out on the [C]door
[D]I can't make no money if I don't out run the [C]man
That's [G]why you find me streakin' through the [Bb]night
[C]Catch me if you [D]can
Chorus
Chorus 2 :
[G]Sometimes you win
[D]Sometimes you won't
sometimes [A]you'll out run that devil
[D]Sometimes you don't
[G]We're all just killin' time til the [D]good Lord calls us [Bm]home
And the [C]best that you can [G]hope for is to [Bb]die[C]
[D]With your boots on
[D]With your boots on
