Dear John Letter Recorded by Jean Shepard and Ferlin Husky Written by Lewis Talley, Fuzzy Owen, Billy Barton
CG7 Dear John oh how I hate to write C Dear John I must let you know tonight C7 That my love for you has died F Away like grass upon the lawn G7C And tonight I'll wed another dear John
Spoken: C I was overseas in battle G7 When the postman came to me
And he handed me a letter C I was happy as I could be
For the fighting was all over F And the battle had been won G7 Then I opened up the letter C And it started dear John
Repeat #1
Spoken: C Will you please send back my picture G7 My husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding C You won't care dear anyhow
Now the ceremony has started F And I'll wed your brother Don G7 Will you wish us happiness forever C Dear John
