[Verse 1]
Eb I'm stoned in the twilight Ab Screaming on the inside Gb Db Ab Give me your water, help me survive Eb Gonna miss the sunlight Ab When I lose my eyesight Gb Db Ab Eb Give me my red shoes, I want to dance Db They search for an answer Ab But that old man wouldn't listen Cm Back then I was handsome Bb Back then he was ignorant
[Chorus]
Eb Ab And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head Db Ab Eb Bb The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed Eb Ab Put them in a box somewhere, put them in a drawer Db Ab Eb Db Ab Db Ab Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymoooore
[Verse 2]
Eb Had garlands in the wings back then Ab All the pretty little things back then Gb Db Ab Calling out my name, oh what fame brings Eb After curtain calls and bows Ab I can't see the front row now Gb Db Ab Eb Hand me my red shoes just one more time Db They pushed aside our presence Ab They refused to go the distance Cm Back then I was Sigmund Bb Back then he wouldn't listen
[Chorus]
Eb Ab And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head Db Ab Eb Bb The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed Eb Ab Put them in a box somewhere, put them in a drawer Db Ab Eb Db Ab Db Ab Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymoooore
