^DI had ^Gnothing to do on this hot afternoon but to ^Asettle down and write you a ^Dline I been ^Gmeaning to phone ya, but from Minnesota ^AHell, it's been a very long ^Dtime

You wear it ^Awell A ^Emlittle old ^D/F#fashioned but ^Gthat's all ^Aright

^DI sup^Gpose you're thinking Aunt Betty's sinking oh he ^Awouldn't get in touch with ^Dme For ^GI ain't begging or losing my head I ^Asure do want you to ^Dknow

That you wear it ^Awell ^EmThere ain't a ^D/F#lady in a ^Gland so ^Afine oh my

^DRemember those ^Gbasement parties, your brothers karate ^AAll day rock and roll ^Dshows the ^Ghomesick blues and the radical views ^Ahaven't left a mark on ^Dyou

You wear it ^Awell A ^Emlittle late on the ^D/F#time but ^GI don't ^Amind

But I ain't for^Ggetting that you were once ^Amine but I ^Gblew it without even ^Atrying Now I'm ^Geating my heart out ^Atrying to get a letter ^Dthrough
