Red shoes by the newsstand, rain splashed the nickel and spilled like Chablis all along the midway.
There's a little blue tea, red dress, sad night, [F#] one straw [Bm] in a root beer, compact with
[F#] a crack beer, a bottle [B] of evening in Paris perfume with a [F#] sad tune, told [Bm] it away by the
magazine, [F#] day care of business it seems, [F#m] bring a raincoat, bring a suitcase, bring your dark
eyes, [F#]
wear those red shoes, [F#m]
there's a dark hood let the bulls stop, rallies arranged
in a sad bouquet, little Caesar got caught, [F#] he's going on down a [B] second, he was cooled,
changing stations on the chamber to steal a diamond ring from a jewelry store, for his
baby, love the way she looked in those red [F#] shoes, she gave it [B] by the drug store, Caesar
never been this late before, dog's bed moon, [F#m] [Bm] rattled the chain, and the cold [B] jingle of
the bell, the cap is in a puddle, with a burglar alarm, snitching on [F#] Caesar, the rain roars
at memories, [Bm] from the sidewalks, the hounds splash the nickel for the soldiers, Santa
Claus is drunk in the ski room, Christmas Eve in a sad [B] cafe, when the moon gets its
way, there's a little [F#m] blue jay, by the newsstand, red shoes, red shoes, made me mad tonight
[B] by the drug [F#] store,
[B] made me mad tonight by [F#m] the drug store, made me mad tonight by the
drug store, going out tonight, going out tonight, [F#] going out [B] tonight, wearing your red shoes,
red shoes, [F#]
red shoes, red shoes, red shoes.

[B] made me mad tonight by [F#m] the drug store, made me mad tonight by the
drug store, going out tonight, going out tonight, [F#] going out [B] tonight, wearing your red shoes,
red shoes, [F#]
red shoes, red shoes, red shoes.
