Dear One

([D]Dear One, Dear One, Dear [G]One)

When the [D]mailman came to our house this [A]morning,
I was [A7]waiting right there for him at the [D]door
But when I [D7]opened up and read your last [G]letter,
then I [A]knew that I would wait for him no [D]more

'Cause you said' [D]Dear One, there's something that I have to [A]tell you"
"Dear One, there's something that I have to [D]say, yay-yay"
"Dear One, he's tall, dark, well [A]you know how it is"
"And Dear One, he stole my heart a[D]way."

"Ah please don't [A]cry, (please don't cry ) try not to be [D]sad (try not to be sad)"
"I tried and I [A]tried (I tried and I tried) not to hurt you [D]bad (not to hurt you bad)"
"I tried so [G]hard (I tried so hard) not to give [D]in (not to give in)"
"But I [A]lost my head, and I lost my heart, and I lost your love to [D]him"

'Cause you said' [D]Dear One, there's something that I have to [A]tell you"
"Dear One, there's something that I have to [D]say, yay-yay"
"Dear One, he's tall, dark, well [A]you know how it is"
"And Dear One, he stole my heart a[D]way."

oh, oh, oh, [D]Dear One, there's something that I have to [A]tell you"
"Dear One, there's something that I have to [D]say, yay-yay"
"Dear One, he's tall, dark, well [A]you know how it is"
"And Dear One, he stole my heart a[D]way."

'Cause you said' [D]Dear One, there's something that I have to [A]tell you"

Oh, "[A]Dear One, he stole my heart a[D]way."
Ah, [A]Dear One, he stole my heart a[D]way."
