Thirsty Boots

Here's an old classic by Eric Andersen. Better listen to the recording to

get a feel for it first. A harmonica would also help.

THIRSTY BOOTS

(Eric Andersen)

Guitar: standard tuning, capo IV

Intro: G G(F#) C G C G D D(G) D D(E)

Notes: use Travis picking style, playing individual notes

in parentheses along with chords on either first

or sixth string. The D(F#) chord is the usual D

major chord with an F# added on the sixth string;

likewise for G(F#).

G G(F#) C G

You've long been on the open road,

C G D(F#)

You've been sleeping in the rain,

G G(F#) C G
