[Verse]:
 
       Gm7
I would tell you about the things
They put me through
 
    Dm7
The pain I've been subjected to
 
          Gm7             Dm7
But the Lord himself, oh, would blush
    Gm7
The countless feasts laid at my feet
   Dm7          Gm7            Dm7
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
               Gm7                  Dm7
But I think your pulse would start to rush
 
C\D                Dm
Now I'm not looking for absolution
C\D      Dm
Forgiveness for the things I do
C\D           FDb
But before you come to any conclusions
 
Bb5
Try walking in my shoes
 
 
G5
Try walking in my shoes
 
 
[Chorus]:
                     Dm
You'll stumble in my footsteps
 
A\C#            Bbmaj7
Keep the same appointments I kept
 
G2                Bbmaj7
If you try walking in my shoes
 
Am\C            Dm7
If you try walking in my shoes

[Verse]:
Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise you, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
 
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
 
 
[Chorus]:
 
        Dm
You'll stumble in my footsteps
A\C#            Bbmaj7
Keep the same appointments I kept
G2           Bbmaj7
If you try walking in my shoes
Am\C            Bbmaj7
If you try walking in my shoes
Am\C    Dm7
Try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
