G               D
I remember when I was a young man
   C            D
My mama took me to the store
          G                D
And I was scared out of my mind
     C              D       
As I stared at that dressing room door
            G       
I was like: "What if the pants are
    D                 C           
too bright, too dark, too baggy, too tight,
    D                     G
too big, wrong cut or too light
                    D            C
Mom was like: "Just be yourself, son
    D
Whatever you choose will be right"


           G                D
Well, it's like she knew my very soul
           C                             D
'Cause the pants I bought that day would change my life
   G                     D
I left that store with a uniform
           C              D
That I was wearing when I met my wife
          G              D
And at my first pop-rock show
           C                      
And when I touched my first boob
        D
And the first time I read Thoreau


                   G           C
I did it all in my t-shirt and jeans
                 D
That's right, it doesn't mean anything
G                  C
People who know me know
           D                                G
That I try not to say too much just with my clothes
                        D
And if you wanna get to know me, man
      C
We're gonna have to talk
        D                      G
So that you can find out who I am


G               D
Well, jeans are pretty great
        C           D
They're durable and comfortable
        G                 D
They're pants made out of plants
        C             D
So it's hard to argue they're unethical
G                    D 
And I sure can say a little or a lot
    C                           D
I'm a fan of unironic images of things I like
     G              D                  C                  
Like giraffes or my YouTube friends or pants
             D
Or chickens, Jesus, nerds or bikes


G                       D           C
But if you really wanna know what I love
           D                G
most about this wardrobe is that
             D           C               D 
It tells you very little about what lies beneath these clothes
G               D
Just by looking at me
C               D
You would never know if I'm a
G                 D
Thousandaire or a billionaire
        C                
I wanna tell you with my mouth
D
Not with the clothes I wear

I think it's odd how when we rebel
   G
We put on uniforms
     C
Like eyeliner or fancy pants
          D
That come factory pre-torn
C
It's easy to say

That a guy must be a certain way
G               D          C
Just because he dresses offbeat
                  G
And a subcultural shortcut
         C               D
Might be what he's goin' for
         G            D         C
But it's always gonna be incomplete
                                       D
Yeah, we're never gonna know what that means

Which is why I wear


G           C
T-shirt and jeans
                 D
That's right, it doesn't mean anything
G                  C
People who know me know
           D                                G
That I try not to say too much just with my clothes
                        D
And if you wanna get to know me, man
      C
We're gonna have to talk
        D                      G
So that you can find out who I am
      C
Yeah, We're gonna have to talk
        D                      G
So that you can find out who I am
