[Verse 1]
D G A
I was born into a family not blessed with worldly things
D G A
We made out well with what the Lord had chose
D G A
With a story and a laugh, the days went rolling past
D G A
And I'll tell to you a tale that no one knows
D G A
On a holy day one May in a bog near Carnaclay
D G A
I laid my swollen head among the yews
D G A
My pillow was a rock when I woke up to the shock
D G A
And found the fairies left these ratty shoes

[Chorus]
D G A
These ratty shoes, they're gonna take me
D G A
Gonna take me from my worry and my woe
D G A
These ratty shoes, they'll not forsake me
D G A
And the grass beneath my feet will never grow

[Instrumental]
| D | D | G | A |
| D | D | G | A |

[Verse 2]
D G A
I staggered from this state and I did not hesitate
D G A
I laced 'em up and rambled near and far
D G A
You may think that I've gone mad, but I swear they're not so bad
