 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)

 VERSE:
   E7
 I had a friend named Sharla
 A7
 She wore funky clothes
 E7
 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
           E7
 Yeah, but Sharla, she knew Jesus
        A7
 So she really didn't care (And she said now)
 
 REFRAIN:
 C#msus            Asus      E
     Well, I don't mind if I wear
             Bsus
 Second hand clothing
 C#msus         Asus          E
     Cuz it's a part of who I am
             Bsus
 And who God made me
        C#msus              Asus
 Making something old brand new
               F7sus            Asus
 Just like the hope my life has found in you, Jesus
 C#msus           Asus    - Bsus
     (So) I don't mind
 E - F7sus - A7/A
                   (I don't mind)

 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
