VERSE:
D  D   G
I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
        A                           D
But to settle down and write you a line
           G
I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota
 A                          D                   
Hell it's been a very long time                  G*     A
             A                                 E ----------
You wear it well                               B -------2--
   Em         D/F#           G*         A      G -------2--
A little old fashioned but that's all right    D -------2--

 D   D  G                                      
Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking
       A                         D
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
   G
Oh I ain't begging or losing my head
   A                   D
I sure do want you to know 
                  A
That you wear it well
 Em           D/F#         *G      A
There ain't a lady in the land so fine, oh my


VERSE: 
 D        D    G
Remember them basement parties, 

Your brother's karate
     A                      D
The all day rock and roll shows
      G
Them homesick blues and radical views
 A                      D
Haven't left a mark on you, 
             A
You wear it well
   Em           D/F#    *G        A
A little out of time but I don't mind


BREAK:
    D  D        G                          D
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
       G                    D
But I blew it without even tryin'
         G         
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
 A                        D     D
Tryin' to get a letter through


INSTRUMENTAL:
A   A      Em  D/F#  *G   A     D D  Em  

 Em               D/F#              *G    A
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on


VERSE:
             D    D        G 
I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
          A                          D
When you sat down and cried on the stairs
                     G
You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it's worth
     A                    D
You made me feel a millionaire 
                 A
And you wear it well
  Em    D/F#       *G          A
Madame Onassis got nothing on you, no no


VERSE:
    D   D   G                             
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told
        A                 D
That I gotta get back to work
             G
So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone
  A                          D
Think of me and try not to laugh 
               A
And I wear it well
Em      D/F#          *G       A
I don't object if you call collect


BREAK:
        D     D  G                          D
'Cos I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
        G                   D
but I blew it without even tryin'
         G                   A                    D
Now I'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
