[Am] [A]
[B]
[D]
[E] [A]
If I could be you, then you could be me for just [B] one hour.
If we [D] could find a way to get [E] inside each [A] other's mind.
If you could see through my eyes [B] instead of your ego.
I believe [D] you'd be surprised [E] to see that [A] you've been blind.
Walk a mile in my shoes.
Walk a mile in [D] my shoes.
Every boy [E] you abuse, criticize and accuse.
[D]
Walk a mile in my [A] shoes.
Now your whole world you see around you is just a [B] reflection.
And the [D] law of karma says you're [E] gonna reap just what [A] you sow.
So unless you live the life of [B] total perfection,
you [D] better be careful of [E] every stone [A] that you throw.
And if we spend the day throwing stones at [B] one another,
cause [D] I don't think or [E] wear my hair the same [A] way you do.
Well I may be common people, but [B] I'm your brother.
And [D] when you strike out and [E] try to hurt me, it's [A] hurting you.
Walk a mile in my shoes.
Walk a mile in [D] my shoes.
Every boy you [E] abuse, criticize and [D] accuse.
Walk a mile in [A] my shoes.
There are people on reservations and [B] out in the ghettos.
And it's [D] rough there, but for the [E] grace of God, I'll show [A] you that I care.
And if I only had wings, a [B] little angel.
I'd go to the [D] top [E] of the mountain, let the [A] little angel fly.
Walk a mile in my shoes.
Walk a mile in my [D] shoes.
Every boy you [E] abuse, criticize and [D] accuse.
Walk a mile in my [A] shoes.
Every boy you abuse, criticize and accuse.
Walk a mile in my shoes.
Walk a mile in my [D] shoes.
Every boy you [E] abuse, criticize and [D] accuse.
Walk a mile in my shoes.
[A]
