[Intro] C G D G [Verse 1]
G                                    C             G
My dear hard workin' daddy works his life away for us

                          D7
That's the way that daddy shows to us his love

    C
And daddy's two hard working hands

                            G
They're callous and they're sore

    C               G                   D                G
And daddy's workin' boots have walked a million miles or more

                         C              G
As long as I remember, I remember Daddy workin'

                      D7
Workin' on the job or either on the farm

C                                        G
Trying to provide for the family that he loves

    C               G                D              G
And daddy's workin' boots have taken many steps for us
[Chorus]
D                          C             G
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation

       C                      G
Though just like him, they're tired and worn

    D7
For years they've helped him stand

C                                           G
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation

C                         G           D
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
[Verse 2]
     G                              C             G
Dear lord above, I know up there my daddy's got a mansion

                          D7
And a great reward that's long been overdue

    C                                               G
And when it comes my daddy's time to be with you in heaven

C                G                D
Won't ya let him walk your golden streets

             G
In a pair of brand new golden boots?
[Chorus]
D                          C             G
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation

       C                      G
Though just like him, they're tired and worn

    D7
For years they've helped him stand

C                                           G
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation

        C                 G           D              G
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
