***VERSE:(LOOK CHORDS FROM FIRST VERSE!)*** 
 
You don't want no stand-by pair 
 
'Cos these'll take the wear and tear 
 
Made to take good care of you 
 
For that trip by road or rail 
 
For extra grip on those rocky trails

C			     F 
Now they maybe ain't too hot for dancing 
 
C			     F 
But I don't foresee too much of that 
 
Am                E7 
You ain't exactly gonna be prancing 
 
Am               F#dim 
Around in the moonlight 
 
       Gm7              C7 
With a cane and a top hat 
 
 
 
***VERSE:(LOOK CHORDS FROM FIRST VERSE!)*** 
 
If you could use a change of pace 
 
And be excused from the rat race 
 
Just take a look at what's on view 
 
Lace 'em up, walk around 
 
I guarantee you can't wear 'em down 
 
You're gonna need a quality shoe 
 
 
***SOLO:***

F    Bb    C7    F    Fmaj7    Bb    C7    F    C7    F 
 
 
 
***BRIDGE:*** 
 
Now I wish you sunny skies 
 
And happiness wherever you may go 
 
But you got to realise 
 
There'll be wind, there'll be rain 
 
And occasional snow 
 
 
 
***VERSE:(LOOK CHORDS FROM FIRST VERSE!)*** 
 
You're gonna want to smile in them 
 
If you're gonna walk a mile in them 
 
There'll be times when you'll be blue 
 
To laugh at rainy days and then 
 
Make your getaways in them 
 
You're gonna need a quality shoe
