Chords

[Verse 1]
     E                                    A
This love of mine is packed with stepping stone

      B7                              E      B7
These shoes are made for walking in reverse

       E          E7                         A
At the dead of night, you tiptoe out and leave me all alone

        F#m                                           B7
Putting on your satin slip-ons and your sultry French cologne.
[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
She's wearing shoes without heels.

F#m                    B7
She's walking over the floor.

E
She's walking all over me

                                   A
From here to there, you know how it feels

B7                              E
When she walks right out of the door.
[Verse 2]
E                                             A
Well, I thought that I was bigger than this town

B7                                      E      B7
I thought I'd spend a pace and go the distance

  E         E7                                   A
But she picked me out, she used me up, and then she put me down

        F#m                                           B7
Now I'm driven til I'm crying, or I'm dreaming 'til I drown.
[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
She's wearing shoes without heels.

F#m                    B7
She's walking over the floor.

E
She's walking all over me

                                   A
From here to there, you know how it feels

B7                              E
When she walks right out of the door.
[Bridge]
G#m                                         C#m
While you're busy packing underwear and other useless trinkets,

        F#m                                   B7
Spare a thought for worthless men who drag on women like they're cigarettes

           G#m
'Cause you watch you walk away from him

      C#m
While he gets down and deals

          F#m                         B7
Oh, he'll watch you walk away without heels
[Verse 3]
   E                                 A
Oh, you think that he's a fool to tolerate

             B7                 E                B7
All the liberty you cherish and you roughly take

E          E7                               A
But to see your love turn slowly from indifference to hate

       F#m                                                  B7
Would hurt him more than any heart that you might care to break.
[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
She's wearing shoes without heels.

F#m                    B7
She's walking over the floor.

E
She's walking all over you

                                   A
But when she's finished, I know what I'll do

B7                              E
When she walks right back through the door.
[Outro] E A B7 E B7 E E7 A F#m B7 (2X)
