[Intro]
Em C G
[Verse]
EmIt weren't the Cseason for your Glove
Should've Cknown, 'cause I never Gfelt warm eAm7nough
But EmI ignore the Ccold, and layered Gup
Acting Clike the shivers Gweren't just from your Am7touch
[Pre-Chorus]
EmMy friends they warned me
GYour dirty laundry
Am7Would be too hard to Cclean
EmSo you found a new home
GWith tidy wardrobes
Am7I'm bursting at the Cseams
[Chorus]
And I hope my ChandmeGdowns, don't Emlook to good on her
And every Csong you Gfound on Emmy playlist sounds worse
Coming Am7out of the Gphone, you Cused to end it all
And I hope she's Emhappy now
GWalking 'round in my handmedowns
[Instrumental]

I, Emthought the holes were Call part of your Gcharm
And I made Creally good exGcuses when you were Am7useless from the start
But I Emknow, it ain't my Cplace to break the Gnews
But she's conCvinced herself comGpletely that she'll Am7make you look brand new
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7Like I did too
But it ain't Ctrue
[Chorus]
And I hope my ChandmeGdowns, don't Emlook to good on her
And every Csong you Gfound on Emmy playlist sounds worse
Coming Am7out of the Gphone, you Cused to end it all
And I hope she's Emhappy now
GWalking 'round in my handmedowns

And I hope my ChandmeGdowns, don't Emlook to good on her
And every Csong you Gfound on Emmy playlist sounds worse
At times when Am7I'm alGone, I'd Clike to try you on
To see if I've Emgrown out; I hope that Am7I've grown out
Of my handmeGdowns
