song-dear john
tunning-capo on second fret
Intro-D G D G
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

Your dark twisted games when I loved you so

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

But I took your matches before fire could catch me

So don't look now
A
I'm shining like fireworks
G D
Over your sad empty town
