C     G    D

[ Verse 1 ]
Em               G              D
Maybe you forgot, but I remember a time
            Am              C         G         D
When those shoes under your bed, they used to be mine
         C        Em      Am           D   G             Em
And it's funny how things change, how they come and they go

[ Chorus ]
        Am    C                D                          Em
I don't fit into those shoes... ...I can't wear them any... more

[Verse 2]
  Em                  G                              D
I should have seen it comin', cause I'm old enough to know
            Am                C           G         D
When those shoes were all the rage such a long long time ago
         C    E           Am          D    G            Em
And it's funny how things change, & what a grown man can  see
        Am             C            G                D
When ruthless time and circumstances bring him to his knees
            C     G                            D      Em
And all the lines being drawn become a question of degrees

[ Chorus ]
      Am                C       D                             C
Those shoes may suit you fine..... they're no longer right for me

[ Bridge ]
    E         G                             C
Oh.... I have been to the dance I've gone around a time or two
         F                               C
And I am grateful for the music that has brought me here to you
             G              Bm                Em            Bm
And though I step out of the  circle it won't stop and never  will

[ Chorus ]
          A                   C       D                                Em
Cause you can't resist those... shoes...and I can't make time ... stand  still

[Verse 3]
    Em            G                              D
Oh, maybe I'll be strong enough to hold out for awhile
     Am             C               G               D
Some victims of fash-ion can't come right back into style
      C                G                                   Em
But I won't waste many tears regretting things that we may   lose

[ Chorus ]
            Am              C        Am            D
Someone was breaking in new dreams...  while I was wearing out
E    Em
Those  shoes

[ Outro ]
Em
Ohh, those shoes.
D           G       Em
Ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh
