1
Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write
2
Dear John, I must let you know tonight
3
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
4
And tonight I wed another, Dear John.
5
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
6
And he handed me a letter, I was happy as I could be
7
For the fighting was all over and the battle had been won
8
Then I opened up the letter and it started, "Dear John."
9
Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write
10
Dear John, I must let you know tonight
11
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
12
And tonight I wed another, Dear John.
13
Will you please send back my picture, my husband wants it now
14
When I tell you who I'm wedding, you won't care, dear, anyhow
15
Now the ceremony has started and I'll wed your brother Don
16
Will you wish us happiness forever, Dear John?
17
Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write
18
Dear John, I must let you know tonight
19
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
20
And tonight I wed another, Dear John.
