      (fade in)

      Dm7                        [repeat to 1:15; vibra-slap enters]
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /

      Dm7             Em7/D      [2X] [piano r.B.: A - C - D - F , B - D - E - G ]
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /

Verse 1:

                    Dm7                           Em7/D
      If you see something that looks like a star
                Dm7                          Em7/D
      And it's shooting up out of the ground
               Dm7                  Em7/D               Dm7   Em7/D
      And your     head is spinning       from a loud guitar
                     Dm7                         Em7/D
      And you just  can't escape from the sound
                  Dm7                 Em7/D
      Don't worry too much it'll happen to you
          Dm7               Em7/D                Dm7  Em7/D
      We were children once        playing with toys

              D                           A
      And the thing that you're hearing is only the sound
              C            G           F
      Of the low spark of high heeled boys

Bridge:

      (saxes arr. for guitar; doubled w/bass [2X; continue])

      D7(no3)           G/D    D7(no3)            [piano r.B : D - A - C , D - G - B ]

            D7(no3)                   G/D      D7(no3)
      The percentage you're paying is too high a price
                 D7(no3)                   G/D   D7(no3)
      While you're living beyond all your means
            D7(no3)                     G/D        D7(no3)
      And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
                F         C             G
      From the profit he's made on your dreams
            F           C             G
      But today you just read that the man was shot dead
           F              C         G
      By a gun that didn't make any noise
              D                      A
      But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest
               C            G           F
      Was the low spark of high heeled boys

[Instrumental break: 16-bar piano solo on Dm7]

      Dm7             Em7/D      [2X]
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /

Verse 2:

      If you had just a minute to breathe
      And they granted you one final wish
      Would you ask for something like another chance
      Or something similar as this
      Don't worry too much it'll happen to you
      As sure as your sorrows are joys

      And the thing that disturbs you is only the sound
      Of the low spark of high heeled boys

[repeat chorus]

      High heeled boys

Instrumental break:

      (Piano, sax, fuzz organ solos)

      Dm7             Em7/D      [5:18 - 9:19]

      Dm7
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /
      Dm7           D7
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /
      Dm7              Em7/D     [2X]
       /  /  /  /    /  /  /  /

Verse 3:

      If I gave you everything that I owned
      And asked for nothing in return
      Would you do the same for me as I would for you
      Or take me for a ride
      And strip me of everything including my pride
      But spirit is something that no one destroys

      And the sound that I'm hearing is only the sound
      Of the low spark of high heeled boys
      Heeled boys

[repeat chorus (instrumental)]
