Biography:
Dear Evan Hansen is nothing short of a Broadway sensation. With music and lyrics written by Benji Pasek and Justin Paul and book written by Stephen Levenson, the still-running 2015 musical tells the story of a lonely young man, the epnonymous Evan Hansen (played by Ben Platt until November 2017) tells a viral lie that escalates to crippling heights and serves as a commentary on our social media obsessed culture and tendency to selfishly wear other people's tragedies.

[Intro]
G G7 Em/G G+ x 2
[Verse]
G B7
Dear Evan Hansen
Em C
We've been way too out of touch
G B7 Em C
Things have been crazy and it sucks that we don't talk that much
Em Dm7 C G B7/F#
I should tell you that I think of you each night
Em Dm7 C A7
I rub my nipples and start moaning with delight
N.C
EVAN: (spoken) Why would you write that?
JARED: (spoken) I'm just trying to tell the truth
EVAN: (spoken) This needs to be perfect.
The emails have to prove that we were actually friends. Just- I’ll do it.
Em Dm7 C G
I've gotta tell you life without you has been hard (“Hard?”)
C G
Has been bad (“Bad?”)
C G B7/F#
Has been rough (“Kinky?”)
Em Dm7 C A7 D
And I miss talking about life and other stuff (“Very specific…”, “Shut up”)
G B7
I like my parents (“Who says that?”)
G B7
I love my parents
Em C
But each day's another fight
G B7 Em C B7/D#
If I stop smoking drugs then everything might be alright
B D
(spoken) “Smoking drugs…?”, “Just fix it!”
G B7
If I stop smoking crack (“Crack?!)
G B7 Em C
If I stop smoking pot then everything might be alright
Em Eb+ G/D
I'll take your advice
Em/C#
I'll try to be more nice
Am7 G/B C
I'll turn it around
C#dim D
Wait and see
(Chorus)
F C
‘Cos all that it takes
G
Is a little reinvention
F C G
It’s easy to change if you give it your attention
B7 Em D7 G G/B C
All you gotta do is just believe you can be who you want to be
C C/D G G7 Em/G G+
Sincerely, me
G G7 Em/G G+ x2
[Verse]
G B7
Dear Connor Murphy,
Em C
Yes I've also missed our talks
G B7
Stop doing drugs
Em C
Just try to take deep breaths and go on walks
Em Dm7 C G
I'm sending pictures of the most amazing trees
Em Dm7 C A/C# B7/D#
You'll be obsessed with all my forest expertise
Em Eb+ G/D
Dude I'm proud of you
Em/C# Am7
Just keep pushing through
G/B C C#dim D
You're turning around I can see
(Chorus)
F C
‘Cos all that it takes
G
Is a little reinvention
F C G
It’s easy to change if you give it your attention
B7 Em D7 G G/B C C/D G
All you gotta do is just believe you can be who you wanna be sincerely, me
N.C
My sister's hot (“What the hell?”, “My bad”)
