[D] [G] [D] [G]
[D]Long were the nights when my days once revolved around [G]you
[D]Counting my footsteps praying the floor won't fal[G]l through again
And my m[A]other accused me of l[D]osing m[A]y mind
[G]But I swore I was fine
[D]You paint me a blue sky and go back and turn it t[G]o rain
And I li[D]ved in your chess game
But you changed the rules ev[G]eryday
[A]Wondering which version of y[D]ou I might g[A]et on the p[G]hone
Well I s[A]topped picking up and this so[D]ng is to le[A]t you know wh[G]y
Dear J[D]ohn, I see it all now that you're [G]gone
Don't you think I was too y[Bm]oung to be messed with
[A]The girl in the dress cried the w[G]hole way home
I should've [D]known [G]
Well m[D]aybe it's me and my blind optimism to [G]blame
Or maybe it's [D]you and your
sick need to give love then take it a[G]way
And you[A]'ll add my name to your l[D]ong
list of t[A]raitors who don[G]'t understand
And I'll look [A]back and regret how I ig[D]nored when they s[A]aid
Run as f[G]ast as you can
Dear J[D]ohn, I see it all now that you're [G]gone
Don't you think I was too [Bm]young to be messed with
The gi[A]rl in the dress cried the w[G]hole way home
Dear J[D]ohn, I see it all now it was w[G]rong
Don't you think 19's too y[Bm]oung to be played by
Your d[A]ark twisted games when I l[G]oved you so
I should've k[D]nown
[D] [G]
You are an [Bm]expert at sorry
And k[A]eeping lines blurry
[G]Never impressed by me acing your tests
All the [Bm]girls that you've run dry
Have t[A]ired, lifeless eyes
Cause you b[G]urned them out
But I t[A]ook your matches befo[D]re fire co[A]uld catch me
So d[G]on't look now
I'm s[A]hining like fireworks
[G]Over your sad empty t[D]own
[G] [Bm] [A] [G]
Dear Jo[D]hn, I see it all now that you're gon[G]e
Don't you think I was too [Bm]young to be messed with
The [A]girl in the dress cried the wh[G]ole way home [D]
I see it all now that you're g[G]one
Don't you think I was too y[Bm]oung to be messed with
The [A]girl in the dress wrote y[G]ou a song
You should've k[D]nown
You should've k[G]nown [D]
Don't you think I was too y[G]oung
You should've k[D]nown
