Dear John - Taylor Swift

Dear John chords

Intro E-A-E-A

E
Long were the nights
                                   A
When the days once revolved around you
E
Counting my footsteps,
                              A
Prayin’ the floor won’t fall through, again
    B                    C#m       B
My mother accused me of losing my mind
       A
But I swore I was fine
     E
You paint me a blue sky and go back
                A
And turn it to rain
       E
And I lived in your chess game
                                 A
But you changed 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

      E
Dear John,
                              A
I see it all now that you’re gone.
                          C#m
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
     B
The girl in the dress
           A
Cried the whole way home
           E        A
I shoulda known

      E
Well maybe it’s me
                         A
And my blind optimism to blame
          E
Maybe its you and your sick need
                           A
To give love then take it away
     B
And you’ll add my name
        C#m           B
To your long list of traitors
     A
Who don’t understand
               B
And I’ll look back in regret
       C#m               B
How I ignored when they said
        A
Run as fast as you can

      E
Dear John,
                              A
I see it all now that you’re gone.
                          C#m
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
     B
The girl in the dress
           A
Cried the whole way home
      E
Dear John,
                         A
I see it all now it was wrong
                               C#m
Don’t you think nineteen’s too young
                      B
To be played by your dark twisted games
        A
When I loved you so
           E        A
I shoulda known
           C#m
You are an expert at sorry
     B
And keeping lines blurry
     A
And never impressed by me acing your tests
        C#m
All the girls that you run dry
      B
Have tired lifeless eyes
         A
Cuz you burned them out
    B
But I took your matches
  C#m              B
Before fire could catch me
    A
So don’t look now
     B
I’m shining like fireworks
A                   E       A    C#m    B     A
Over your sad empty town 

      E
Dear John,
                              A
I see it all now that you’re gone.
                           C#m
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
     B
The girl in the dress
           A                 E
Cried the whole way home
                              A
I see it all now that you’re gone.
                          C#m
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
     B
The girl in the dress
      A
Wrote you a song
               E
You should’ve known
             A       E
You shoulda known
                           A
Don’t you think I was too young
                     E
You shoulda known.
