Capo 2

// Intro
G  D  Em (2x)
Am
C

// Verse
    G                 D               Em
I'm looking through a box my dad just sent me
            G                 D              Em
Filled with hand-me-downs and things he once wore
G            D        Em                C
  He passed along his blessings and his curses
G            D                Em
  But mainly scraps -- nothing more
C             D
  No, nothing more

And I pray to God his shoes will never fit me
And I pray this isn't my inheritance
  His dirty T-shirts and all his girlfriends' mini skirts
  Are the things I now resent
  Lord, I resent

// Refrain

Em                             D         G
   Old man didn't give me much more than
                    Am
   Just second hand clothing
Em                          D       G
   But Jesus wants more for me than
                    Am
   Just second hand clothing
               C
   Second hand clothing

// Verse
I've spent my lifetime dancing with his demons
They're constantly comparing him with me
  They tell their lies as they look into my eyes and say
  The apple doesn't fall far from its tree
  And I pray, "O, Lord not me"

// Repeat refrain

// Verse
So I put away this box that I was given
Cuz nothing in it meant that much to me
  I have outgrown these hand-me-downs and now I know
  That God gives me everything I need
  Everything I need now (So)

// Repeat refrain (2x)

I had a friend named Sharla

She wore funky clothes

Big boots from a thrift store
A7
Fishing net for pantyhose

E7
  And all the people 'round town
     A7
Just shook their heads and stared

Yeah, but Sharla, she knew Jesus
       A7
So she really didn't care (And she said now)

    Well, I don't mind if I wear

Second hand clothing
C#msus         Asus          E
    Cuz it's a part of who I am
            Bsus
And who God made me

Making something old brand new

VERSE:
Here comes John the Baptist
He's wearing camel skin
He's got wild flowers in his hair
And he's talkin' 'bout God again

Well he didn't come to impress nobody
He just came to share
Cuz you can't judge a man by the color of his skin
Or the clothing that he wears (And John said)

VERSE:
I'm not saying it ain't cool
To buy your clothes from Paris
But if you can't afford it, brother
Please don't be embarassed

Because there's more to life than fancy clothing
In some fancy room
It might make you wise to walk a mile
In someone else's shoes (Now, now)

Repeat REFRAIN
