Chords for Jonathan Richman - Everyday Clothes Live

_ _ _ _ _ Thank you.
That's right.
_ Thank you.
Thank you everyone.
This time I want to sing a song called Everyday Clothes, _ [Am] _ [Em] which tells you [G] about when I first
saw my wife.
[Am] It was in a dark bar.
[F] Though she wasn't my [G] wife then.
I [Am] hadn't met her yet.
_ [Em] _
I think she [G] was wearing this [C] nice black dress, maybe if I remember.
[Am] But then I [F] saw her in the afternoon [G] about six months later.
[C] Finally had met her.
[Am] _ _
Well, [G] I'll tell you about it.
[C] _ _ [Am] _ _
[F] _ _ [G] _ _ We're [Am] getting ready for a party [F] nowadays and she's wondering, [G] what's the wait?
And I said, look, [Am] why don't you just wear [F] what you would have worn [G] every day.
[C] You know, t-shirt, [Em] _
[F] sweatshirt, cut off [Fm] shorts and those [C] _ [Em] plain old [F] everyday [G] clothes.
_ [C] She [E] had a black dress [F] that I [G] remember still.
[Em] But in her ordinary clothes, the girl [F] was [G] dressed to kill.
[C] I loved her.
[Em] I loved her [F] at first sight, I suppose.
[C] And I think I loved [Am] her more than just [F] them plain [G] old everyday [C] clothes.
_ [F] _ _
_ [G] Well, you know, jeans and a sweater, [F#] jeans and a shirt.
I started going all soft.
Then I started to [G] flirt. _ _ _
Jeans and something that didn't fit right.
It didn't matter.
I loved her at first sight.
[C] Well, yeah. _ _
Here she comes up the street now.
Zip switch Massachusetts in the summer afternoon.
She got the blue jean jacket on.
_ _ She got the cut off jeans with a little fringe on them from Washington.
_ She got the Babe Ruth Lee t-shirt and it's all got holes and paint stains.
_ _ She's dressed to kill.
Yeah, see, I [Em] could see even in dark nightclub.
She [G] was one pretty girl.
[C] But in Ipswich [Em] in the [F] afternoon, she was the [G] queen of the world.
[C] And I loved [Em] her.
I loved [Fm] her.
Because, because that's the way it goes.
[C] And I [F] loved her more what she was just in [G] plain old [C] everyday clothes.
[G] Okay, fine job [C] then.
But what do you mean?
Well, I'll tell you.
Well, jeans and a sweater, you know, jeans and [C] a shirt.
