Charlie's Shoes - Billy Walker G G7 C I'd like to be in Charlie's shoes, that's what I always said, D G Cause he had you and every-thing, And with a golden ring, G G7 C Then Charlie left and went away, and when I got the news, D7 G It wasn't long till I was walking round in Charlie's shoes. G G7 C Now I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore, D7 G Walking back and forth across the floor, G G7 C The troubles that drove him away I've got for company, D7 G These nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me. - LEAD BREAK - G G7 C The greener grass that turned my head,so swiftly did turn brown, D7 D7 G Cause every little dream I built, shes always tearing down, G G7 C I never knew old Charlie's shoes, could have so many tacks, D7 G Of disapointing sorrows and I wish, he had them back. - Repeat Chorus -
