"Dear John (Taylor's Version)"
[00:23.97] Long were the nights
[00:26.15] When my days once revolved around you
[00:36.04] Counting my footsteps
[00:39.22] Prayin' the floor won't fall through again
[00:47.48] And my mother accused me of losin' my mind
[00:53.31] But I swore I was fine
[01:00.00] You paint me a blue sky
[01:02.93] Then go back to turn it to rain
[01:11.26] And I lived in your chess game
[01:15.25] But you change the rules every day
[01:24.28] Wonderin' which version of you
[01:27.74] I might get on the phone tonight
[01:35.71] Well, I stopped pickin' up
[01:38.37] And this song is to let you know why
[01:46.87] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[01:57.51] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[02:03.09] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[02:11.90] I should've known
[02:15.62] (Guitar Riff)
[02:24.45] Well, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
[02:35.60] Or maybe it's you and your sick need
[02:39.36] To give love then take it away
[02:48.22] And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors
[02:54.09] Who don't understand
[02:59.67] And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said
[03:05.80] "Run as fast as you can"
[03:11.92] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[03:21.78] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[03:27.35] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[03:35.89] Dear John, I see it all now, it was wrong
[03:46.00] Don't you think nineteen's too young to be played by
[03:51.31] Your dark, twisted games when I loved you so?
[04:00.10] I should've known
[04:04.11] (Guitar Solo)
[04:11.54] You are an expert at "Sorry" and keepin' lines blurry
[04:19.00] Never impressed by me acing your tests
[04:24.08] All the girls that you run dry have tired, lifeless eyes
[04:30.18] 'Cause you burned them out
[04:36.84] But I took your matches before fire could catch me
[04:42.70] So don't look now
[04:48.90] I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town
[05:05.68] Oh
[05:18.43] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[05:28.26] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:33.89] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[05:46.11] I see it all now that you're gone
[05:52.48] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:58.06] The girl in the dress wrote you a song
[06:06.83] You should've known
[06:09.32] .
[06:12.98] You should've known
[06:16.69] .
[06:22.58] Don't you think I was too young?
[06:29.48] You should've known
