G                                 F#m
I had shoes full of holes when you first took me in
                   G
The path that you led was straight to your bed
          A
there's no cots to sleep in
        F#m                  E
And you showed me who I was running from
        F#m                 E
As if I had not known all along


            G
Oh, my old feet They know this hard street
          F#m
Stay like old friends
                      G
They're flat on the ground there's no further down
          A
There's no cots to sleep in


[Bridge]

  F#m
So come in
                        E
Leave them outside the door
             F#m
Tear off the paper
                              E     A   E
Tear off the carpet off the floor


[Chorus]
                   D
And I know you're hurting
               F#m
And I can't be there for you
                   D
And I know you're hurting
                F#m
And I can't be there no more
        G
I had shoes full of holes
                 A
When you first took me in
   G
I had callouses, not sores
       A
And I'd like to keep them


[Verse]
                   G
So go turn those sheets get back on the street
                           F#m
There's nothing more I can bring to you
                         G
They are scared of the door, afraid of the floor
              A
Well, I'll go and walk right through


[Bridge]
          F#m
And I'll show you
               E
Who I've been running from
          F#m
It's the feeling of waking
          E
And it's gone


[Chorus]
                   D
And I know you're hurting
               F#m
And I can't be there for you
                   D
And I know you're hurting
               F#m
And I can't be there no more
          G
I had shoes full of holes
                A
When you first took me in
   G
I had callouses, not sores
     A
And I'd like to keep them


            G
Oh, my old feet they know this hard street
             F#m
They're like old friends
                     G
They're flat on the ground there's no further down
          A
There's no cots to sleep in


[Bridge]

   F#m
So come in
                        E
Leave them outside the door
              F#m
Tear off the paper
                              E
Tear off the carpet off the floor


[Chorus]
                   D
And I know you're hurting
               F#m
And I can't be there for you
                               D
And I know you're hurting
                F#m
And I can't be there no more
        G
I had shoes full of holes
                 A
When you first took me in
   G
I had callouses, not sores
     A
And I'd like to keep them


                   G

There's nothing more I can bring to you
                         G
They are scared of the door Afraid of the floor
                     A
Well, I'll go and walk right through

          F#m
And I'll show you
               E
Who I've been running from
          F#m
It's the feeling of waking
          E
And it's gone
