  Chorus>

  Bb                  F 

  Dear John, Oh how I hate to write

                     F7            Bb

  Dear John, I must let you know tonight

  

  That my love for you has died, 

    Bb7     Eb 

  Away like grass upon the lawn

        F7                           Bb

  And tonight I'll wed another Dear John

  

  

  Recitation>

  

  Bb                       F       

  I was overseas in battle, when the postman came to me

                            F7                          Bb

  And he handed me a letter, ah, I was happy as I could be

                                Bb7     Eb 

  For the fighting was all over, & the battle had been won

      F7                                       Bb      

  But then I opened up the letter & it started "Dear John"

  

  

  Repeat Chorus

  

  

  Recitation>

  

   Bb                                     F 

  "Will you please send back my picture? 

  

  Cause my husband wants it now

                                       F7

  And when I tell you who I'm wedding

                     Bb

  You won't care dear anyhow

                               Bb7

  Now the ceremony has started

            Eb

  And I'll wed your brother Don

            F7                             Bb                        

  Will you wish us happiness forever, Dear John?
