[Intro]
Bm G Em
[VERSE]
Em
I would tell you about the things
They put me through
Bm
The pain I've been subjected to
Em Bm
But the Lord himself would blush
Em
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Bm
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
Em Bm
But I think your pulse would start to rush
[PRECHORUS]
Em Bm
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Em Bm
Forgiveness for the things I do
Em D Bb
But before you come to any conclusions
G
Try walking in my shoes
[you can slide to this Em from G barre]
Em
Try walking in my shoes
[CHORUS]
Bm
You'll stumble in my footsteps
F# G
Keep the same appointments I kept
Em G
If you try walking in my shoes
Asus2 Bm
If you try walking in my shoes
[VERSE]
Em
Morality would frown upon
Bm
Decency look down upon
Em Bm
The scapegoat fate's made of me
Em
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
Bm
My intentions couldn't have been purer
Em Bm
My case is easy to see
[PRECHORUS]
Em Bm
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Em Bm
Peace of mind after what I've been through
Em D Bb
And before we talk of any repentance
G
Try walking in my shoes
Em
Try walking in my shoes
[CHORUS]
Bm
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Bb G
Keep the same appointments I kept
Em G
If you try walking in my shoes
Asus2 Bm
If you try walking in my shoes
[PRECHORUS]
Em Bm
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Em Bm
Forgiveness for the things I do
Em D Bb
But before you come to any conclusions
G
Try walking in my shoes
[you can slide to this Em from G barre]
Em
Try walking in my shoes
[CHORUS]
Bm
You'll stumble in my footsteps
F# G
Keep the same appointments I kept
Em G
If you try walking in my shoes
Asus2 Bm
If you try walking in my shoes
