Dear John

From the Album: Hat Full of Stars


Intro: F#  C#

F#   C#
Dear John
F#       C#
What's wrong? 
Ab                       Bbm       F#
Why can't you just be anything you want? 
     C#  G     C#   Ab
Why not?   why not? 



F#                        C#
I tried to tell you then. You didn't understand. 
F#                           
They try and pigeonhole you. 
C#                Ab 
Buddy, they don't even know you. 
    F#   C#
But hang on 
    F#         C#
my dear, dear, John. 



Ab                         Bbm  F#
Maybe you're not just like everyone, 
  C#   Ab   C#    Ab
so what, so what.
     F#      C#
And there's more 
    F#   C#
to live for, 
Ab                   Bbm  FX
than some abbreviated encore, 
     C#   Ab    C#    Ab
much more, much more. 



F#              
You can't define yourself
C#
in terms of someone else. 
F#
You can't say what you're thinking ? 
    C#                  Ab
But I don't know what you've been drinking. 
    F#    C#
But don't cry. 
       F#        C#
'Cause life goes on. 



Ab                         Bbm       FX
Dear John, you could be anything you want.
    C#  G      C# 
Why not?  Why not ?
Ab                       Bbm   F
Why you could even be an astronaut,
      C#  G      C#
dear John,  dear John.
