Intro: E E A A - x2 E Long were the nights when A My days once revolved around you E Counting my footsteps A Praying the floor won't fall through again B C#m B My mother accused me of losing my mind A B C#m But I swore I was fine E You paint me a blue sky A Then go back and turn it to rain E And I lived in your chess game A But you changed the rules everyday B C#m Wonderin' which version of you B A C#m I might get on the phone, tonight B Well I stopped pickin' up and C#m B A A This song is to let you know why Chorus: E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone. C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? B A C#m The girl in the dress cried the whole way home. E E A A I shoulda known. E Well maybe it's me A And my blind optimism to blame E Or maybe it's you and your sick need A To give love and take it away B And you'll add my name to your C#m B Long list of traitors A C#m Who don't understand B And I look back in regret how C#m B I ignored when they said A A "Run as fast as you can" Chorus: E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone. C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? B A C#m The girl in the dress cried the whole way home. E A Dear John, I see it all now it was wrong. C#m Don't you think nineteen's too young B To be played by your dark twisted games A C#m When I loved you so? E E A A I shoulda known. C#m You are an expert at sorry B And keeping lines blurry A And never impressed by me acing your tests C#m All the girls that you run dry B Have tired lifeless eyes A C#m 'Cause you burned them out B But I took your matches C#m B Before fire could catch me A C#m So don't look now B I'm shining like fireworks A E E A A C#m B A Over your sad empty town Chorus: E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? B A C#m E The girl in the dress cried the whole way home E A I see it all now that you're gone C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? B A C#m The girl in the dress wrote you a song E You shoulda known A E You shoulda known. E A Don't you think I was too young? E You shoulda known. | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA C#m E B |
