Those Shoes

Em    G    D      Am
C     G    D

[ Verse 1 ]
Em               G              
Maybe you forgot, but I remember a 
D
time
            Am              C  
When those shoes under your bed, 
       G         D
they used to be mine
         C        Em      Am     
And it's funny how things change,
      D   G             Em
 how they come and they go

[ Chorus ]
        Am    C                D 
I don't fit into those shoes... 
                         Em
...I can't wear them any... more

[Verse 2]
  Em                  G           
I should have seen it comin', 
                   D
cause I'm old enough to know
            Am                C   
When those shoes were all the rage
        G         D
 such a long long time ago

         C    E           Am     
And it's funny how things change,
     D    G            Em
 & what a grown man can  see
        Am             C          
When ruthless time and 
  G                D
circumstances bring him to his knees
            C     G               
And all the lines being drawn 
             D      Em
become a question of degrees

[ Chorus ]
      Am                C       D
Those shoes may suit you 
                             C
fine..... they're no longer right 
for me

[ Bridge ]
    E         G                   
Oh.... I have been to the dance 
          C
I've gone around a time or two
         F                         
And I am grateful for the music 
      C
that has brought me here to you
             G              Bm    
And though I step out of the  
            Em            Bm
circle it won't stop and never  will

[ Chorus ]
          A                   
Cause you can't resist those... 
C       D                        
shoes...and I can't make time ...
        Em
 stand  still

[Verse 3]
    Em            G               
Oh, maybe I'll be strong enough to
               D
 hold out for awhile
     Am             C             
Some victims of fash-ion can't 
  G               D
come right back into style
      C                G   
But I won't waste many tears 
                                Em
regretting things that we may   lose

[ Chorus ]
            Am             
Someone was breaking in new 
 C        Am            D
dreams...  while I was wearing out
E    Em
Those  shoes

[ Outro ]
Em
Ohh, those shoes.
D           G       Em
Ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh
