[Verse]
Em             C               G
It weren't the season for your love
          C                     G          Am7
Should've known, 'cause I never felt warm enough
    Em           C                 G
But I ignore the cold, and layered up
       C                G                      Am7
Acting like the shivers weren't just from your touch

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
My friends they warned me
G
Your dirty laundry
Am7                  C
Would be too hard to clean
Em
So you found a new home
G
With tidy wardrobes
Am7                 C
I'm bursting at the seams

[Chorus]
              C     G            Em
And I hope my handmedowns, don't look to good on her
          C        G        Em
And every song you found on my playlist sounds worse
       Am7        G          C
Coming out of the phone, you used to end it all
                 Em
And I hope she's happy now
G
Walking 'round in my handmedowns

[Instrumental]
Em C G

[Verse]
   Em                     C                G
I, thought the holes were all part of your charm
           C             G                   Am7
And I made really good excuses when you were useless from the start
      Em                C                  G
But I know, it ain't my place to break the news
             C                 G                   Am7
But she's convinced herself completely that she'll make you look brand new

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Like I did too
             C
But it ain't true

[Chorus]
              C     G            Em
And I hope my handmedowns, don't look to good on her
          C        G        Em
And every song you found on my playlist sounds worse
       Am7        G          C
Coming out of the phone, you used to end it all
                 Em
And I hope she's happy now
G
Walking 'round in my handmedowns

[Bridge]
Em C G               Em C G
Oooooh my handmedowns, she's happy now
Em C G
Oooooh
C G Am7
Oooooh

[Chorus]
              C     G            Em
And I hope my handmedowns, don't look to good on her
          C        G        Em
And every song you found on my playlist sounds worse
              Am7   G        C
At times when I'm alone, I'd like to try you on
               Em                     Am7
To see if I've grown out; I hope that I've grown out
            G
Of my handmedowns
