Dear John
F# C#
What's wrong?
G# Bbm F#
Why can't you just be anything you want?
C# G C# G#
Why not? why not?
F# C#
I tried to tell you then. You didn't understand.
F#
They try and pigeonhole you.
C# G#
Buddy, they don't even know you.
F# C#
But hang on
F# C#
my dear, dear, John.

G# Bbm F#
Maybe you're not just like everyone,
C# G# C# G#
so what, so what.
F# C#
And there's more
F# C#
to live for,
G# Bbm FX
than some abbreviated encore,
C# G# C# G#
much more, much more.
F#
You can't define yourself
C#
in terms of someone else.
F#
You can't say what you're thinking ?
C# G#
But I don't know what you've been drinking.
F# C#
But don't cry.
F# C#
'Cause life goes on.
G# Bbm FX
Dear John, you could be anything you want.
C# G C#
Why not? Why not ?
G# Bbm F
Why you could even be an astronaut,
C# G C#
dear John, dear John.
