Secret Song    

Al Simmons   

I wrote this song while on tour in Pennsylvania. This is one of the original verses

These are my favourite shoes.

These are my favourite shoes.

When I wear them to my bank,

I'm rich as Howard Hughes

We dropped it because we thought kids wouldn't know who Howard

Hughes was.

D9

I have a secret place

C#9

I have a secret place,

G

And when I’m hiding in it

A7

You can not see my face.

D9

It’s my secret place.

These are my secret shoes.

These are my secret shoes,

And when I click my heels,

I go where ever I choose

They’re my secret shoes.

CHORUS:

F#

It’s confidential,

Bm

Confidentially,

A7

Keep it a secret,

D9

Between you and me.

This is my secret glove.

This is my secret glove,

When I hold your hand in mine

I fill you up with love

It’s my secret glove.

I have a secret word

I have a secret word

And if I yell it loud enough

It still can not be heard

It’s my secret word

(Chorus)

 Shh, I hear my secret cello

I hear my secret cello

Every time I hear it play

I become so mellow

This is my secret water

This is my secret water

And if you put some ice in it

It keeps on getting hotter

It’s my secret water

(Chorus)

I think I’ll put on my secret shoes

And my secret gloves

And head down to my secret place

Where I’ll pour my secret water

Say my secret word

And wash this secret look off my face.
