[Verse 1]
I'm Ebstoned in the twilight
AbScreaming on the inside
GbGive me your Dbwater, help me Absurvive
EbGonna miss the sunlight
AbWhen I lose my eyesight
GbGive me my red Dbshoes, I want to AbdanceEb
DbThey search for an answer
But that Abold man wouldn't listen
Back tCmhen I was handsome
Back Bbthen he was ignorant
[Chorus]
And Ebshave off the years now, it's Aball inside my head
The Dbboy in the Abred shoes is Ebdancing by my Bbbed
EbPut them in a box somewhere, Abput them in a drawer
DbTake my Abred shoes, I can't Ebwear them DbanyAbmooooreDb Ab
[Verse 2]
Had Ebgarlands in the wings back then
All the Abpretty little things back then
GbCalling out my Dbname, oh what fame Abbrings
After Ebcurtain calls and bows
I Abcan't see the front row now
GbHand me my red Dbshoes just one more AbtimeEb
They Dbpushed aside our presence
They Abrefused to go the distance
Back Cmthen I was Sigmund
Back Bbthen he wouldn't listen
[Chorus]
And Ebshave off the years now, it's Aball inside my head
The Dbboy in the Abred shoes is Ebdancing by my Bbbed
EbPut them in a box somewhere, Abput them in a drawer
DbTake my Abred shoes, I can't Ebwear them DbanyAbmooooreDb Ab
