[VERSE ONE] E Long were the nights A When my days once revolved around you E Counting my footsteps A Prayin' the floor won't fall through again B C#m B And my mother accused me of losin' my mind A But I swore I was fine E You paint me a blue sky E A Then go back to turn it to rain E And I lived in your chess game A But you change the rules every day B C#m Wonderin' which version of you B A I might get on the phone tonight B Well, I stopped pickin' up C#m B A And this song is to let you know why www.chordzone.org [CHORUS] E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with? B A The girl in the dress cried the whole way home E A E A I shoulda known [VERSE TWO] E A Well, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame E Or maybe it's you and your sick need A To give love and take it away B C#m B And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors A Who don't understand B C#m B And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said A "Run as fast as you can" www.chordzone.org [CHORUS] E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?

[BRIDGE] C#m B You are an expert at "Sorry" and keepin' lines blurry A Never impressed by me acing your tests C#m B All the girls that you run dry have tired, lifeless eyes A 'Cause you burned them out B C#m B But I took your matches before fire could catch me A So don't look now B A E A I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town C#m B A Oh [CHORUS] E A Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone C#m Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
