Capo 2
[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]
