[B]
[G]
Red shoes, by the newsstand, rain splashed the nickel, spilled like Chamblee, [D] all along the [G] midway.
There's a little blue jay, red dress, [F#]
sad night, [Bm]
one straw, we in a root beer,
[G]
compact, with a cracked mirror, bottle of evening in Paris perfume, was [B] this sad tune,
told [G] it to be by the magazine, daycare of business, see, bring a [F#] raincoat, [Bm]
bring a suitcase,
[D]
bring [G] your dark eyes,
[Bm] wear those wet shoes, dark roulette, bus [F#] stop, rallies [B] arranged in a sad bouquet,
little Caesar [G] got caught, he's going on down a second, he was cool, changing stations on the chamber,
to steal a diamond [D] ring, from a jewelry store,
[G] poor his baby, love the way she looked in those red [B] shoes, she ate it by the drug store,
Caesar never been this late before, dogs bit the moon, [F#m] [Bm]
rattled the chain,
and the [B] cold jingle of Thomas in a bottle, [G] was the burglar alarm, stitching [Bm] old Caesar,
and the rain [G] washed memories, from the sidewalks, the hounds splashed the nickel, from the soldiers,
Santa Claus [B] is drunk, [Bm] [B] in the ski room, Christmas Eve, [G]
in a sad cafe,
[B] when the moon gets its way, there's a little [G] blue jay, by the newsstand,
in red shoes, wearing red shoes, so mad mad at night, [B] by the drug store,
mad mad at night, [G] by the drug store, mad mad at night, by the drug store,
going out at night, going out at night, going out at night, in your red shoes,
red shoes, [B] [F#]
red shoes, red [B] shoes, red shoes.
[F#]
