Intro:  A Bm G A (x2) 

verse 1
  
A                D                    A 
Now lay me down on the warehouse ground. 
      D   A                     D A 
Later on, I don't go there now. 
A          D              A     D 
On and on, I know what to say. 
D                A                            D A 
She's never been taught but she knows the way. 

Bridge:
  
A             D     G              A 
I was kidding love, I was kidding. 
                 D                           G  A 
But you just weren't smart enough to know it. 
A           D                      A 
I was lying love, they were lying 
                       D                           G  A 
when they said "if you love someone, let them go." 


A        E           D         A 
Dear John, I know we got along. 
      F#m     E            D     A 
I was right, sir, you were wrong. 
A            E           D    A   
She will marry some self-made man. 
F#m           E 
I still write songs, 
                A              Bm D A 
but I miss your daughter John. 
A           D            A Bm D A 
I miss your daughter John 


verse 2
  
A             Bm 
Now there she lay, 
         D          A 
with her nose in place, 
       Bm                         G      A 
broken wrist, just the picture of grace. 
A          Bm  G                   A 
And on and on, what her father says 
          D                                 G      A 
Well he's never been shown but he knows what it is. 
A             Bm             G     A 
I was kidding love, I was kidding. 
                     D                       A 
But you just weren't smart enough to know it. 
            D               A 
I was lying love, they were lying  
                       D           G             A 
when they said "if you love someone let 'em know." 
D                         G                       A 
Now, what if I stayed and did that thing for you? 
D                                         F#m/E   D    A 
What if I stayed and did that thing that's always true. 
A 
What's a man to do? 

 
F#m      E           D         A 
Dear John, I know we got along. 
F#m          E             D     A 
I was right, sir, you were wrong. 
         F#m  E          D    A 
She will marry some self-made man. 
        F#m  E                                  D   A 
I still write songs, but I miss your daughter, John.

        F#m    E 
I still write songs,

But I miss your daughter, John.
