Paolo Nutini - New Shoes
A capo is used with different chords when the song is played live but
this is how you play the album version (no capo used)
Bb = 688766
C# = x4666x
G# = 466544
F = x8756x
Eb = x6888x
These are the best ways to play the chords
The F is tricky but sounds right
Chords in brackets ( ) aren't played by the guitar but can be if you want to
(Bb) (G#) (Bb)
(Bb)
Woke up cold one tuesday
(C#) (G#)
I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick
(Bb) (C#) (F)
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life
Bb
So i quickly opened the wardrobe
C# G#
Pulled out some jeans and a T-Shirt that seemed clean
Bb
Topped it off with a pair of old shoes
C# F
That were ripped around the seams
G#
And I thought these shoes just don't suit me
Bb F
Hey, I put some new shoes on
Eb
And suddenly everything's right
Bb F
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on
Eb
And everybody's smiling, it's so inviting
Bb F
Oh, short on money but long on time
Eb
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
Bb F
And I'm running late and I dont need an excuse
Eb
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes
G# (Bb)
Woke up late one thursday
(C#) (G#)
And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes
(Bb)
And I felt like there were two days missing
(C#) (F)
As I focused on the time
Bb
And I made my way to the kitchen
C# G#
But I had to stop from the shock of what I found
Bb
A room full of all of our friends
C# F
All dancing round and round
G#
And I thought hello new shoes, bye bye them blues
