Sand In My Boots

 Eb  Ab  Bb  Eb

Eb              Ab
She asked me where I was from
Bb                      Eb
I said somewhere you've never been to
Cm                 Ab
Little town outside of Knoxville
Bb
Hidden by some dogwood trees

Eb                 Ab
She tried talkin' with my accent
Bb                     Eb        Cm
We held hands and waded into that blue water
Ab                     Bb                 Eb
She left her flip-flops by my Red Wings on the beach

Ab                     Eb
Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes
                     Bb
In my sunburnt Silverado
Ab                     Eb              Bb
Like a heart-broke Desperado
                         Eb
Headed right back to my roots

Eb
Somethin' 'bout the way she kissed me
Ab                   Eb
Tells me she'd love Eastern Tennessee
Ab                    Eb
Yeah, but all I brought back with me
Bb                     Eb
Was some sand in my boots

Ab
I said, "Let's go shoot tequila"
Bb                      Eb
So we walked back to that beach bar
Cm                    Ab
She said, "Don't cowboy's drink whiskey? Huh"
Bb
So we drank bottom shelf

Eb                    Ab
She said, "Damn, that sky looks perfect"
Bb                         Eb         Cm
I said, "Girl you've never seen stars like the ones back home"
Ab                  Bb                  Eb
And she said, "Maybe I should see them for myself"

Ab                     Eb
Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes
                     Bb
In my sunburnt Silverado
Ab                     Eb              Bb
Like a heart-broke Desperado
                         Eb
Headed right back to my roots

Eb

Bb                     Eb

Ab
I said, "Meet me in the mornin'"
Bb                     Eb
And she told me I was crazy
Cm                   Ab
Yeah, but I still thought
Bb
That maybe she'd show up

Eb                     Ab
Ah, but now I'm dodging potholes
Bb                      Eb
In my sunburnt Silverado
Cm                    Ab
Like a heart-broke Desperado
