Red Shoes

G F C G

[Verse 1]
    G
I remember as a child
      F
I was absolutely wild
           C                     
'Bout some red shoes that my aunt 
          G
Lucy wore
          G
She would let me stomp around
         F
In those high heels up and down
           C                   
'Round the house and 'round the 
                 G
wraparound porch


[Chorus 1]
    Em
And from that moment on
           Bm
I've had a pair of my own
     C                             
They make me feel at home and brand
    G
 new
     Em
They build my confidence
      Bm
As if they've been heaven sent
       C                           
I feel alone, I'm puttin' on my red
     D
 shoes


[Verse 2]
         G
I begged mama, "Pretty please

         F
From the wishbook order me
          C                        
A pair of red shoes for my feet", 
       G
so mama did
            G
Through the years I've thought about
            F
Aunt Lucy's love and think of how
            C                      
Such little things in life can make
            G
 or break a kid


[Chorus 2]
    Em
I believe that every child
         Bm
Needs to feel a sense of pride
        C                        
And someone to love and guide and 
          G
see them through
   Em
So many miles I've traveled
     Bm
Many times they've come unraveled
       C
On the road both smooth or gravel
    D
But I've made it through, ooh


[Bridge]
G
Hell and half of Georgia
   F
Or walkin' through New Orleans
         C
Walk the streets of Memphis bowlin'
        G
Stroll around a block or two
       G
And if God sees fit to hold me
   F
Anyone that's ever known me
         C
Know I'd walk the gold streets only
     G
In a pair of red shoes


[Otro]
         G
And if I ever get to heaven
     F
If I ever get to heaven
     C
If I ever get to heaven
           G
And Lord I hope I do
       G
I will walk the streets of glory
       F
I will walk the streets of glory
       C
I will tell my Lucy story
              G
And walk with her in red shoes
