Dolly Parton - Red Shoes Chords

[Intro]
G F C G

[Verse 1]
     G           Gm
I remember as a child
G          F
I was absolutely wild
            C                           G
'Bout some red shoes that my aunt Lucy wore

She would let me stomp around
          F
In those high heels up and down
             C                                 G
'Round the house and 'round the wraparound porch


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


[Verse 2]
C               G
I begged mama, "Pretty please
         F
From the wishbook order me
          C                       G
A pair of red shoes for my feet", so mama did

Through the years I've thought about
     F
Aunt Lucy's love and think of how
     C                                         G
Such little things in life can make or break a kid


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

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

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


[Outro]
C        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

And walk with her in red shoes
