Chords
Dear John Letter
Recorded by Jean Shepard and Ferlin Husky
Written by Lewis Talley, Fuzzy Owen, Billy Barton
C G7
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
G7 C
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
