Lyrics

If I could be you

and you could (C)be me

for just one hour,

if we could find a way

to get in side

each oth er’s (Bb)mind.

If you could see you

through my eyes

in stead of your (C)e go,

I be lieve you’d (Eb)be

sur prised to see

that (F7)you’d been (Bb)blind.

Walk a mile in my shoes,

walk a mile in my shoes,

and be fore you a buse,

crit i cize and ac cuse,

walk a mile in my shoes.

Now your whole be you

and you could (C)be me

for just one hour,

if we could find a way

to get in side

each oth er’s (Bb)mind.

If you could see you

through my eyes

in stead of your (C)e go,

I be lieve you’d (Eb)be

sur prised to see

that (F7)you’d been (Bb)blind.

Walk a mile in my shoes,

walk a mile in my shoes,

and be fore you a buse,

crit i cize and ac cuse,

walk a mile in my shoes.

And yet we
