Dear John - Taylor Swift

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

Chorus:

      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

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

Chorus:

      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

Bridge:

           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

Chorus:

       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
