The Wild Feathers Tall Boots Lyrics

I think that this is one of the strongest songs from their debut album
ENJOY Standard Tuning
"Tall Boots"
I'm a lover of yesterday, it don't matter where I lay
I've got tall boots, and memories to hold
And when the sun finally sets, I can see my cigarette
Burning slow like the songs on the radio
G, G/F# (this bass note walk-down happens between verse and chorus to the Em)
Young man, seventeen, Green eyes and blue jeans and
D G G,G/F#, Em
Boots so old, all the miles they've seen
I remember holding on to every prayer I said at dawn
Like get me home, I promise I'll never leave
I promise I'll never leave, oh where would I go
Because all of these melodies are sad and cold
and all these stories that been told
all have me growing old
on the dusty hood of a car, I could hear all the stars
Singing out of tune, with the moon
and the song was sad as hell, and then the stars fell
lighting up the road between me and you. (G, G/F#, Em walkdown)
Young man 23 living on amphetamines
D G G,G/F#, Em
and eyes so black all of the sadness they've seen
I remember holding on to every prayer I've said at dawn
Like get me home, I promise I'll never leave
Promise I'll never leave, oh where would I go
Because of these melodies are sad and slow
and all of these stories that been told
all have me growing old
Instrumental Break
I remember holding on, to every prayer I said at dawn
Like get me home, I promise I'll never leave
Promise I'll never leave, oh where would I go
Because of these melodies are sad and cold
and all of these stories that been told
all have me growing old
Badada, dada, dada dada, dada
(basically repeat this over this progression until the end)
This should do it. Sorry I didn't tab the instrumental/solo!
Enjoy
