| The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes by ELVIS COSTELLO |
| E | B | E | B | E |
| E | Abm |
| 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? |
| Abm | B | |
| You | know that it still hurts me just to | say it. |
| E | |
| Oh, I | know that she’s disgusted (oh why’s that) |
| Abm | |
| 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. |
| Abm | B | |
| Ever | since you got me punctured this has been my | sentence. |
| E | Abm |
| 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 |
| A | |
| wear my red | shoes (and so on) |
