Boots Of Spanish Leather
Bob Dylan



Em C G
Oh I'm sailin' away my own true love
Em D/F# G
I'm sailin' away in the morning
Em C G

is there something I can send you from across the sea
Em D/F# G
From the place that I'll be landing?



Em C G
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
Em D/F# G
There's nothin' I wish to be ownin'
Em C G
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
Em D/F# G
From across that lonesome ocean.



Em C G
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
Em D/F# G
Made of silver or of golden
Em C G
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Em D/F# G
Or from the coast of Barcelona ?


Em C G
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
Em D/F# G
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
Em C G
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
Em D/F# G
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.



Em C G
That I might be gone a long time
Em D/F# G
And it's only that I'm askin'
Em C G
Is there something I can send you to remember me by
Em D/F# G
To make your time more easy passin'?



Em C G
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again
Em D/F# G
It only brings me sorrow
Em C G
But the same thing I would want from you today
Em D/F# G
I would want again tomorrow.



Em C G
When I got a letter on a lonesome day
Em D/F# G
It was from her ship a-sailin'
Em C G
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
Em D/F# G
It depends on how I'm a-feelin'.


Em C G
Well, if you, my love, must think that-a-way
Em D/F# G
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
Em C G
I'm sure your thoughts are not with me
Em D/F# G
But with the country to where you're goin'.

Em C G
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Em D/F# G
Take heed of the stormy weather
Em C G
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
Em D/F# G
Spanish boots of Spanish leather.
