A, G, A, A
[Verse 1]
A
Woke up cold one tuesday,
C G
i'm looking tired and feeling quite sick,
A C E
i felt like there was something missing in my day to day life,
A
so i quickly opened the wardrobe,
C G
pulled out some jeans and a T-Shirt that seemed clean,
A
topped it off with a pair of old shoes,
C E
that were ripped around the seams,
G
and i thought these shoes just don't suit me.
[Chorus]
A E
Hey, I put some new shoes on,
D
and suddenly everything is right,
A E
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on
D
and everybody's smiling, its so inviting,
A E
Oh, short on money, but long on time,
D
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
A
and i'm running late,
E
and i dont need an excuse,
D
'cause i'm wearing my brand new shoes.
[Verse 2]
A
Woke up late one thursday,
C G
i'm seeing stars as i'm rubbing my eyes,
A
and i felt like there were two days missing,
C E
as i focused on the time,
A
and i made my way to the kitchen,
C G
but i had to stop from the shock of what i found,
A C E
a room full of all my friends dancing round and round,
G
and i thought hello new shoes, byebye blues.
[Chorus] (x1)
[Breakdown] (x2)
(Miss some of the G's out on the first run through, you'll see what I mean)
G , A , G
[Bridge]
A G
Take me wondering through these streets,
A G
where bright lights and angels meet,
A G
stone to stone they take me on,
A
im walking to the break of dawn. (x2)
[Chorus] (x2)
A E
Hey, I put some new shoes on,
D
and suddenly everything is right,
A E
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on
D
and everybody's smiling, its so inviting,
A E
Oh, short on money, but long on time,
D
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
A
and i'm running late,
E
and i dont need an excuse,
D
'cause i'm wearing my brand new shoes.
