_ _ Suzy was three [Eb] when she first blessed our home.
We loved her as much [Ab] as a child of our own.
But her little legs [Db] were all twisted and frail.
[Ab] It was never [Eb] meant for Suzy [Ab] to be well. _
[Eb] In her little bedtime prayer [Bb] she would _ say,
Lord I know you've been [Eb] busy today. _
But if you get some time, [Ab] oh please pretty please,
[Eb] Could I [Bb] have some slippers [Eb] with wings? _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _

She loved to watch the children [Eb] on the playground nearby.
_ They'd call Suzy's name, [Ab] she'd wave and say hi.
Her tiny [Db] teardrops would leave the wind stained.
[Ab] It wasn't [Eb] like our Suzy to [Ab] complain. _
[Eb] She would say to her brown [Bb] puppy doll, _
Little Scampy I know it [Eb] won't be _ long,
Till I run and play tag [Ab] like my _ friends.
[Eb] God's sending [Bb] golden slippers [Eb] with _ wings.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _

_ Suzy turned four and [Eb] her tiny hands were weak.
Pain took its toll [Ab] and the color left her cheeks.
Christmas it came and [Db] we knew it by Suzy's bed.
[Ab] I could still [Eb] hear the last words [Ab] Suzy said. _
[Eb] Mommy, mommy there's a man dressed [Bb] in white.
Daddy look he's shiny [Eb] and bright.
And he's holding some ribbon [Ab] and string.
Around [Eb] a pretty pair [Bb] of slippers [Eb] with wings. _
And if ever I am certain [Ab] of [Eb] one [Ab] certain thing,
[Eb] Suzy's wearing [Bb] golden slippers [Eb] with wings.
