        Em
I would tell you about the things
They put me through
     Bm
The pain I've been subjected to

        Em                  Bm
But the Lord himself would blush

     Em 
The countless feasts laid at my feet

  Bm
Forbidden fruits for me to eat

Em                                    Bm   
But I think your pulse would start to rush
[PRECHORUS]
Em                       Bm
Now I'm not looking for absolution

Em                   Bm 
Forgiveness for the things I do

Em                     D        Bb     
But before you come to any conclusions

G
Try walking in my shoes
[you can slide to this Em from G barre]
Em
Try walking in my shoes
[CHORUS]
                      Bm   
You'll stumble in my footsteps

Bb                          G
Keep the same appointments I kept

Em                    G
If you try walking in my shoes

Asus2                  Bm
If you try walking in my shoes
[VERSE]
Em
Morality would frown upon

Bm
Decency look down upon

Em                           Bm
The scapegoat fate's made of me

       Em
But I promise now, my judge and jurors

     Bm
My intentions couldn't have been purer

Em                  Bm
My case is easy to see
[PRECHORUS]
Em                     Bm
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience

Em                       Bm
Peace of mind after what I've been through

Em                     D   Bb
And before we talk of any repentance

G
Try walking in my shoes

Em
Try walking in my shoes
[CHORUS]
                      Bm   
You'll stumble in my footsteps
