Faces were an early 1970s rock band formed in 1969 from the remaining members of Small Faces after Steve Marriott left to form Humble Pie; new members Ron Wood (guitar) and Rod Stewart (vocals) (both from The Jeff Beck Group) joined Ronnie Lane (bass), Ian McLagan (keyboards) and Kenny Jones (drums). The name The Faces refers to well known people about town, and the band's previous incarnation as the Small Faces also referred to the diminutive stature of the band members.

Three Button Hand Me Down Faces from the album First Step tabbed by Clayton Ptak [email protected] 12-04-02 http://www.geocities.com/evenflow_pj/guitar.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (bass intro)
E I don't need no one's opinion On the matter concerning my dress. I was raised in a clinic down in Oklahoma, There were many things I did not possess. A I never complained, because my father said, "Son you'll get your chance before you're my age". E Then he took me upstairs and gave me this suit Written all over his face B He said, "Others may come and others may go, A But that suit will be around wherever you're goin'" EA Three button hand me down EA Three button hand me down
(bass intro)1x
E I had my fair share of neat women, But they came between me and my suit. That was a filly from Boston, a barmaid from Houston, Not forgetting the one in Detroit. A They said, "We like you boy and we think you're sweet, But can't you lose your suit?" E I said, "No, no, no, no, you can't do that to me" I remember what my father said: B He said, "Others may come and others may go, A But that suit will be around wherever you're goin'" EA Three button hand me down, ha ha, EA Three button hand me down
(simple, bluesy solo)
E I've never been a tidy dresser And the fold in my trousers it ain't straight. Still I know a good cloth when I see one. That's why I'm clad in this gray flannel suit. A Sometimes I wonder if I should visit a tailor And get myself a smooth outfit. E Then I remember what my father said to me. I'll make you from the open road B He said, "Others may come and others may go, A But that suit will be around wherever you go" EA Three button hand me down, EA Three button hand me down
