Dear Joan
F Dm F C
I've almost forgotten
F Dm F C
Pane in the window
F Dm F C
Blue dress in the doorway
Dm F C
Dear Joan
F Dm F C
Help me remember
F Dm F C
The face I forget
F Dm F C
And the traps that I've sprung
F F/E
I guess I've grown tired
Dm Dm/C
It's just what's expected of me
Bb C
To tear your heart from the inside
To the outside
F F/E
You know I was wired
Dm Dm/C
I just couldn't help it
Bb C
The hundred thousand times i hurt you
F
Dear Joan
F/E Dm
I wanted to say
Dm/C Bb
That I'm sorry for the screaming last night

And the nights before
F F/E Dm Dm/C
Well I've wanted more from this
Bb C
Than anything I've ever known
Dm F C F Dm F C
Dear Joan
Dm F C
Dear Joan
F Dm F C
Your face has a brightness
F Dm F C
That I've never seen
F Dm F C
In the years that I've known you

Dm F C
Dear Joan
F Dm F C
I pick up the peices
F Dm F C
Some scattered too far
F Dm F C
See they flew when I kicked them
F F/E
I know you believed
Dm Dm/C
When I said it was over
Bb
You stood by me patiently
C
Waiting and brooding
F F/E
So deeply in love
Dm Dm/C Bb C
With every face that I've shown
F

Than anything I've ever known
Dm C
Once I forget
Bb C
Twice I'm a fool
Dm C
Three times I wrap
Bb C Dm F C F
My hands around your neck
Dm F C
While you're sleeping
F Dm F C
You're quietly sleeping
F Dm F C
Sleeping and dreaming
Dm F C
Dear Joan
F Dm F C
Don't walk out the doorway
F Dm F C
Because if you did
F Dm F C
I believe I could honestly kill you
