[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            G
I should've known

[Verse]

          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

[Instrumental]
