Tom: A E A D A [Verse 1] A D I'd like to be in Charlie's shoes, that's what I always said. E A Cause he had you, and everything, tied with golden thread. A D Then Charlie left and went away, and when I got the news.. E A D A it wasn't long till I was walking around in Charlie's shoes. [Chorus] A D Now I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore. E A Walking back and forth across the floor. A D The troubles that drove him away I've got for company.. E A D A these nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me. [Interlude] E A D A [Verse 2] A D The greener grass that turned my head, so swiftly did turn brown. E A Cause every little dream I build, she's always tearing down. A D I never knew old Charlie's shoes could have so many tacks.. E A D A of disappointing sorrows and I wish he had them back. [Chorus] A D Cause I'm wearing out the shoes that Charlie wore. E A Walking back and forth across the floor. A D The troubles that drove him away I've got for company.. E A D A these nights in Charlie's shoes are killing me. [Outro] E A D A E A
