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

C C G7 G7
Dear John oh how I hate to write
C C
Dear John I must let you know tonight
C7 C7
That my love for you has died
F F
Away like grass upon the lawn
G7 G7 C C
And tonight I'll wed another dear John

Spoken:
C C
I was overseas in battle
G7 G7
When the postman came to me

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


For the fighting was all over
F F
And the battle had been won
G7 G7
Then I opened up the letter
C C
And it started dear John

Repeat #1

Spoken:
C C
Will you please send back my picture
G7 G7
My husband wants it now

When I tell you who I'm wedding
C C
You won't care dear anyhow


Now the ceremony has started
F F
And I'll wed your brother Don
G7 G7
Will you wish us happiness forever
C C
Dear John
