Am                      Em
Oh, she move like the diva do
Am                    Em
I said, I'd love to dance like you
Am                      Em
She said, Just take off my red shoes
Am                     Em
Put them on and your dream will come true!
Am                      E
With no words, with no song
Am                                E
You can dance the dream with your body on

[Prechorus]
Am                         E
And this curve, is your smile
Am                        E
And this cross, is your heart
Am                      E
And this line, is your path

[Chorus]
Am                              C                     G
Oh, it’s gonna be the way you always thought it would be
G                     Am   Em
But it’s gonna be no illusion
Am                     C                G
Oh, it’s gonna be the way you always dreamt about it
 G              Am                  Em Em Em
But it’s gonna be really happening to ya

[Verse]
Am                       Em
Oh, the minute I put them on
Am                          Em
I knew I had done something wrong
Am                              Em
All her gifts for the dance had gone
Am                                  E
It’s the red shoes! They can’t stop dancing
E
Dancing!

[Prechorus]
Am                        E
And this curve, is your smile
Am                        E
And this cross, is your heart
Am                      E
And this line, is your path

[Chorus]
Am                              C                     G
Oh, it’s gonna be the way you always thought it would be
G               Am         Em Em
But it’s gonna be no illusion
Am                     C                G
Oh, it’s gonna be the way you always dreamt about it
 G                 Am         Em Em
But it’s gonna be really happening

[Extended Chorus]
Am
She gotta dance, she gotta dance
Am              C             G
And she can’t stop ‘til the shoes come off
Am                         G
For the shoes do a kind of voodoo
Am                                     G
They’re gonna make her dance ‘til her legs fall off

[Verse]
Am                      Em
Feel your hair come tumbling down
Am                      Em
Feel your feet start kissing the ground
Am                    Em
Feel your arms are opening out
Am                     Em
And see your eyes are lifted to God

[Bridge]
Am                      E
With no words, with no song
Am                                      E
I’m gonna dance the dream, and make the dream come true
Am                                      E
I’m gonna dance the dream, and make the dream come true

[Extended Chorus]
Am
She gotta dance, she gotta dance
Am              C             G
And she can’t stop ‘til the shoes come off
Am                           G
For the shoes do a kind of voodoo
Am                                     G
They’re gonna make her dance ‘til her legs fall off
Am                  G
Call a doctor! Call a priest!
Am              C                 G
They’re gonna wave her up like a helicopter

[Outro]
Am                  G
Really happening to ya
Am                  G
Really happening to ya

[Repeat outro 3x, ending on Am]
Am              Em
You gotta daaaaaaaance…
