The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes by ELVIS COSTELLO
Intro
E B E B E
E G#m
Oh I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused.
E7
But since their wings have got rusted,
A B E
You know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
A E
But when they told me ’bout their side of the bargain,
A E
That’s when I knew that I could not refuse.
B A B A E
And I won’t get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
A B E
Oh, I was watching while you’re dancing away.
B A E
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
A B E
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
G#m B
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.
E
Oh, I know that she’s disgusted (oh why’s that)
G#m
Cause she’s feeling so abused. (oh that’s too bad)
A
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I’m so sad)
B
But it’s so hard to refuse.
A
How can you say that I’m too old,
E B A E
When the angels have stolen my red shoes.
A B E
Oh, I said «I’m so happy, I could die.»
B A E
She said «Drop dead,» then left with another guy.
A B E
That’s what you get if you go chasing after vengeance.
G#m B
Ever since you got me punctured this has been my sentence.
E G#m
Oh I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused.
E7
But since their wings have got rusted,
A B E
You know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
A E
But when they told me ’bout their side of the bargain,
A E
That’s when I knew that I could not refuse.
B A B A E
And I won’t get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
A E A E
Red shoes, the angels want to wear my red shoes Red shoes, the angels
Want to
Wear my red (A)shoes (and so on)
