You Wear It Well Tabulatur von Rod Stewart (für Baryton)

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

            A
You wear it well
 Em          D             G          A
A little old fashioned but that's all right

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           G       A
There ain't a lady in the land so fine

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          G     A
A little out of time but I don't mind

              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
Tryin' to get a letter through

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

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            G        A
Madame Onassis got nothing on you

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           G     A
I don't object if you call collect

D                     G                      D
'Cause 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

Em            D                      G    A
After all the years I hope it's the same address
Em                D                  G    A
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
