[Verse]
A    E                                          A          Esus4
Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you ■    
A        E                                    A                 
Counting my footsteps praying the floor won't fall through again
    B                 Dbm7                     B A               
And my mother accused me of losing my mind but I swore I was fine
E                                               A      
You paint me a blue sky and go back and turn it to rain
    E                                                    A        
And I lived in your chess game but you changed the rules every day
B               Dbm7                          A                
Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone tonight
B                             Dbm7                    A       
Well I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why


[Chorus]
E                               A          
Dear John I see it all now that you're gone
                      Dbm7                       
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
I should've known ■

[Verse]
Amaj7 E                                        A       
■     Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
   E                                                        A      
Or maybe it's you and your sick need to give love then take it away
    B                       Dbm7                       B   A     Esus4     
And ■ you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't understand
         B                        Dbm7                    
And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said
A                     
Run as fast as you can


[Chorus]
E                               A          
Dear John I see it all now that you're gone
                      Dbm                        
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with
Dbm7 B                       A             E   
The  girl in the dress cried the whole way home
                              A        
Dear John I see it all now it was wrong
                           Dbm      
Don't you think nineteen's too young
                B                            A             
To be played by your dark twisted games when I loved you so
  E              
I should've known


[Bridge]
A Dbm                        B                 A     
■ You are an expert at sorry and keeping lines blurry
                   A                  
Never impressed by me acing your tests
    Dbm                                B                  
All the girls that you've run dry have tired lifeless eyes
A                         
'cause you burned them out


[Verse]
B                       Dbm7                      
But I took your matches before fire could catch me
A                
So don't look now
B                A                       E         
I'm shining like fireworks over your sad empty town


[Chorus]
   A  Dbm B A
Oh oh ■   ■ ■
E                               A          
Dear John I see it all now that you're gone
                      Dbm7                       
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with
B               A     E                         
The girl in the dress ■ cried the whole way home
         A                       
I see it all now that you're gone
                      Dbm                        
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with
B                     A               
The girl in the dress wrote you a song


[Outro]
    E              
You should've known
    A              
You should've known
E                       Emaj7 Amaj7
■ Don't you think I was too   young
A               E    
■ You should've known
