Verse 1
Oh, I (D major) used to be disgusted
And now I try (F sharp minor) to be amused
But since their (D major) wings have got rusted
You know, the (G major) angels wanna
(A major) wear my red shoes (D major)
But (G major) when they told me 'bout
their side of the bar (D major) gain
That's (G major) when (E minor) I (G major) knew
that I could not refuse
And (E minor) I won't (A major) get any older,
now that (G major) angels wanna (A major) wear my red (G major) shoes (D major)
Oh, oh, (G major)
