Shoemaker shoemaker of Leatherwear Square

Carve me a pair of shoes that I can wear

Searching for true love among all the faces

He pulled out his needle and spool of golden thread

Round petal soft cushions and gossamer wings
Em Em7 D Em Em7 D
He stitched them together with Cupid's bow strings

He polished them with silver and they began to shine

But before I closed the door I heard the shoemaker say
