Verse 

Em                 C         
I'm being dragged down    
G 
Down by the hand                 
      Em               C     G 
The hand of a golden giant man           
     Em            C 
He's crushing my knuckles        
G 
Splitting my skin 
    Em              C     
He says he will let go 
             G 
If only I'd ask it of him 
        Em  C         G 
He says Girl, it's your call 
           Em  C            G                
You wanna fly   You wanna fall 
          Em              C  
So I shout...I wanna get away from you 
     G 
As fast as I can         
    Em              C 
I tell my feet to move it 
    G 
I hope they have a plan 

      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are heading the right way 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C     G 
These little black sandals saved my life today 

Verse

         Em       C   G 
So now I'm free....free  
Em                 C 
From the big bad giant  
G           
Who was stalking me 
Em         C       G 
Thank you feet, for guiding me  
Em                 C             G  
I'm glad somehow I got brains down there, at least 

      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are heading the right way 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C     G 
These little black sandals saved my life today 

Verse

           Em 
Sometimes I'm tempted 
C          G 
Sometimes I am   
       Em                          C            G 
I would be lying if I said I didn't miss that giant man 
      Em       C              G 
Oh... He was the line between pleasure and pain 
 Em                     C                    G 
But me and the feet have some years to reclaim 

      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are heading the right way 
      Em              C         G 
These little black sandals are walking me away 
      Em              C     G 
These little black sandals saved my life today
