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

_ She loved to watch the kids [F] on the playground nearby.
They'd call Suzy's name, [Bb] she'd wave and say hi.
Her tiny teardrops [Eb] would leave a window stain.
[Bb] But it wasn't [F] like our Suzy to [Bb] complain.
_ [F] She'd just say to her brown [C] puffy dog,
Little Scampy, I know it [F] won't be long
Till I run and play tag like my [Bb]
friends.
God [F] send in me [Cm] pretty slippers with _
[Dm] wings.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ [Dm] _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _
[F] _ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ Suzy turned four, but [F] her tiny hands grew weak.
Pain took its toll [Bb] and the color left her cheeks.
Christmas Eve came and [Eb] we prayed by Suzy's bed.
[Bb] I still can hear [F] the last words [Bb] she said,
_ [F] Mommy, mommy, there's a man dressed in [C] white.
Daddy, looky, he's shiny [Dm] and bright.
[F] And he's holding some ribbon [Bb] and string.
Round [F] a pretty [C] bell, slippers [F] with wings.
And if ever I was certain [Bb] of one certain thing,
Suzy's [F] wearing golden [C] slippers with [Eb] wings.
