    A

    If I could be you, if you could be me

                 B                 D

    For just one hour, if we could find a way

             E                 A

    To get inside each other's mind

    A

    If you could see you through my eyes

                     B                   D

    Instead your own ego I believe you'd be

                                    E

    I believe you'd be surprised to see

                     A

    That you've been blind

                      A

  *Walk a mile in my shoes

                           B

    just walk a mile in my shoes

                E                     D

    Before you abuse, criticize and accuse

                           A

    Then walk a mile in my shoes

 

    Now if we spend the day

    Throwin' stones at one another

    'Cause I will think, 'cause I will think

    To wear my hat the same way you do

    Well, I may be common people

    But I'm your brother

    And when you strike out

    You're tryin' to hurt me

    It's hurtin' you, Lord how mercy

 

     *Repeat

    Now there are people on reservations

    And out in the ghetto

    And whether they're for the grace of God

    Or you and I,

    If I only had wings of a little angel

    Don't you know, I'd fly

    To the top of a mountain

    And then I'd cry, cry, cry

 

    *Repeat
