Dear John
D G Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you D G Counting my footsteps praying the floor won't fall through again A D A And my mother accused me of losing my mind G But I swore I was fine D G You paint me a blue sky and go back and turn it to rain D And I lived in your chess game G But you changed the rules everyday A D A G Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone Tonight A D A G Well I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why D G Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Bm Don't you think I was too young to be messed with A G (STOP) The girl in the dress cried the whole way home D I should've known G D G Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame D G Or maybe it's you and your sick need to give love then take it away A D A G And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't understand A D A And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said G Run as fast as you can D G Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Bm Don't you think I was too young to be messed with A G The girl in the dress cried the whole way home D G Dear John, I see it all now it was wrong Bm Don't you think 19's too young to be played by A G Your dark twisted games when I loved you so D I should've known D G Bm You are an expert at sorry A And keeping lines blurry G Never impressed by me acing your tests Bm All the girls that you've run dry A Have tired, lifeless eyes G Cause you burned them out A D A But I took your matches before fire could catch me G So don't look now A I'm shining like fireworks G D Over your sad empty town G Bm A G D G Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone Bm Don't you think I was too young to be messed with A G The girl in the dress cried the whole way home D G I see it all now that you're gone Bm Don't you think I was too young to be messed with A G The girl in the dress wrote you a song D You should've known G You should've known.................(D) G Don't you think I was too young D You should've known
