Dear John
Dear John, it won't be long
Before you read this and know I've left you
Whatever it was that made us go wrong
Please understand that I'll always blame you
Dear John, you're on your own
Please don't hate me, you have your freedom
Remember it never was my fault
Our partnership, can't ever be re-done
And if you need a clean shirt John, I've left, just one
You'll have to find the iron, and use it
you were my friend and now i find, you're not so kind
I gave you my love and let you abuse it
Na na na na na
na na na na
Dear John, We had good times
Though it sometimes felt like slavery
This lesson is hard for you to learn
I hope you're proud of my bravery
Now don't forget, when all is said
I still see red
When you are with some other woman
So don't you come near me again
I am in pain
I'm just not sure what I would do to you
Na na na na na
na na na na yeah
Dear John, I hope you're sad
Takes a bad time to make you bitter
Remember it really was all your fault
And my leaving should make you bitter
Bitter, bitter, bitter, bitter, bitter, Yeah,Yeah,Yeah
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na, Dear John
To the tune of Hey Jude by The Beatles
