[Intro 1]
[G][Em][C]
[G][D][G][Em][C]
[G][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
Wandering [Em]lonely
through the snow [G]streets of New York
[C]I stumbled on a thrift store that sold
[Am]postcards by t[D]he yard[Dsus4][D][Em]
I bought a mile and shipped them
[Bm]home so [G]I c[Bm]ould r[G]ead
Ten [C]thousand ten-word tragedies, tragedies,
the [Am]lives these strangers [Dsus4]lead
To [D]remind [Am]myself the
[Dsus4]thing s I need
[D]Cause

[Verse 2]
[G]I once wrote you love songs
You [Em]never fell in love
We [C]used to fit like mittens,
but never like gloves
[G][D][C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
You left me feeling [C]like[G][D]
We'd [Dsus4]never really bee[D]n in lov[Em]e

[Verse 4]
Huddled [Em]home up in my place,
[Bm]in H[G]olloway
I [C]wondered if you ever heard those
[Am]songs I used t[Dsus4]o play[D][Em]
I wrote them as a gift for [Bm]you
and in re[G]turn
[C]You gave a pair of hand knit mittens
to [Am]keep my fingers [D]warm
[Dsus4]So I could [Am]play more
ig[D]nored love [Dsus4]song s[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]I once wrote you love songs
You [Em]never fell in love
We [C]used to fit like mittens,
but never like [G]gloves[D]
And [Em]I once wrote you postcards
[Am]You never wrote [C]back
Promised me you would and I'm
still waiting for them
[G][D][C][G][D]

[Verse 6]
You left me feeling [C]like[G][D]
We'd never really been in [C]love[G][D]
Don't wanna fit like mit[C]tens[G][D]
I [G]wan[Em]na fit like gloves
[C]Wanna fit like gloves
[G][D]

[Verse 7]
[G]I once wrote you love songs
You [Em]never fell in love
We [C]used to fit like mittens
but never like [G]gloves

[Outro 1]
Never like gloves
[D][Dsus4][G][Em][C][G]
