G            Am 
Days full of rain 
D            C     G 
sky's comin' down again 
F        C    Am 
I get so tired 
         G        Am 
of these same old blues 
G        Am 
same old song 
D        C        G 
Baby, it won't be long 
F          C     Am 
'fore I be tyin' on 
G         Am 
my flyin' shoes 
G      Am 
flyin' shoes 
F         C     Am 
till I be tyin' on 
G         Am 
my flyin' shoes 
 
 
Spring only sighed 
summer had to be satisfied 
fall is a feelin' that I just can't lose. 
I'd like to stay 
maybe watch a winter day 
turn the green water 
to white and blue 
flyin' shoes 
flyin' shoes 
till I be tyin' on 
my flyin' shoes 
 
The mountain moon 
forever sets too soon 
bein' alone is all the hills can do 
alone and then 
her silver sails again 
and they will follow 
in their flyin' shoes 
flyin' shoes 
they will follow in their 
flyin' shoes 
 
Days full of rain 
skys comin' down again 
I get so tired 
of the same old blues 
same old song 
Baby, it won't be long 
till I be tyin' on 
my flyin' shoes 
flyin' shoes 
till I be tyin' on 
my flyin' shoes
