Red Shoes chords by Dolly Parton

Chords with lyrics

Intro:
G+G FF C majorC G+G


Verse 1:
   G+G      G minorGm
I remember as a child
G+G     FF
I was absolutely wild
      C majorC              G+G
’Bout some red shoes that my aunt Lucy wore

She would let me stomp around
     FF
In those high heels up and down
       C majorC                 G+G
’Round the house and ’round the wraparound porch

Chorus 1:
E minorEm
And from that moment on
      B minorBm
I’ve had a pair of my own
   C majorC                 G+G
They make me feel at home and brand new
 E minorEm
They build my confidence
    B minorBm
As if they’ve been heaven sent
    C majorC                 D MajorD
I feel alone, I’m puttin’ on my red shoes


Verse 2:
C majorC        G+G
I begged mama, "Pretty please
     FF
From the wishbook order me
     C majorC            G+G
A augmentedA pair of red shoes for my feet", so mama did

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


Chorus 2:
E minorEm
I believe that every child
     B minorBm
Needs to feel a sense of pride
  C majorC                      G+G
And someone to love and guide and see them through
 E minorEm
So many miles I’ve traveled
    B minorBm
Many times they’ve come unraveled
    C majorC             D MajorD
On the road both smooth or gravel

But I’ve made it through, ooh

Bridge:
G+G
Hell and half of Georgia
  FF
Or walkin’ through New Orleans
     C majorC
Walk the streets of Memphis bowlin’
    G+G
Stroll around a block or two

And if God sees fit to hold me
FF
Anyone that’s ever known me
C majorC
Know I’d walk the gold streets only
G+G
In a pair of red shoes


Outro:
C majorC    G+G
And if I ever get to heaven
FF
If I ever get to heaven
C majorC
If I ever get to heaven
      G+G
And Lord I hope I do
G+G
I will walk the streets of glory
    FF
I will walk the streets of glory
    C majorC
I will tell my Lucy story

And walk with her in red shoes
