[Intro 1]
[D][Em]
[D][A][D]
[Em][D][G][Em]
[A]
[D]I had nothing

[Verse 1]
[G]
to do on this hot afternoon
But to [A]settle down and write you a [D]line
I've been [G]meaning to phone
you but from Minnesota
[A]Hell it's been a very long [D]time
You wear it [A]well
[Em]A little old fash[D]ioned but [Em]that's all [A]right

[Verse 2]
[D]Well I sup[G]pose you're thinking
I bet he's sink[Em]ing
Or [A]he wouldn't get in touch with [D]me
Oh, [G]I ain't begging or losing my head
[A]I sure do want you to [D]know
that you wear it [A]well
[Em]There ain't a [D]lady in the [Em]land so fine
[A]

[Verse 3]
Re[D]member them [G]basement [Em]parties,
your [G]brother's karate
The [A]all day rock and roll [D]shows
Them [G]homesick blues and
radical views
[A]Haven't left a mark on you,
[D]you wear it wel[A]l
[Em]A little out [D]of time but [Em]I don't mind
[A]

[Verse 4]
But I [D]ain't forget[G]ting that
you were once [D]mine
But I [G]blew it without even try[D]in'
Now I'm [G]eatin' my heart out
Try[A]in' to get a letter through

[Interlude 1]
[D][Em]
[D][A][Em][D][Em]
[A][D][Em][A]
[Em]Since you've been gone

[Verse 5]
[D]
it's hard to [Em]carry [A]on
I'm gonna [D]write about the [G]birthday
gown that I bought in town
When [A]you sat down and
cried on the [D]stairs
You knew it did not [G]cost the earth,
but for what it's worth
You [A]made me feel a millionaire
[D]and you wear it wel[A]l
Ma[Em]dame [D]Onassis got
noth[Em]ing [A]on you

[Verse 6]
Any[D]way, my [G]coffee's cold
and I'm getting [Em]told
That [A]I gotta get back to [D]work
So when [G]the sun goes low and
you're home all [Em]alone
[A]Think of me and try not to
[D]laugh and I wear [Em]it we[A]ll
[Em]I don't obje[D]ct if you ca[Em]ll collect
[A]'Cause I ain[D]'t forgettin[G]g
that you were once [D]mine
But I blew [G]it without [D]even tryin'
Now I'm [G]eatin' my heart [Em]out tryi[A]n' to get back to [D]you

to carry [Em]on
