Dm F C F Dm F C   Dm F C F Dm F C
 
     Dm    F   C
Dear Joan
     F            Dm    F    C
I've almost forgotten
F           Dm     F   C
Pane in the window
     F            Dm       F   C
Blue dress in the doorway
 
     Dm   F  C
Dear Joan
F         Dm     F  C
Help me remember
    F         Dm  F  C
The face I forget
        F               Dm       F  C
And the traps that I've sprung
 
  F                F/E
I guess I've grown tired
     Dm          Dm/C
It's just what's expected of me
Bb                          C
To tear your heart from the inside
 
To the outside
    F          F/E
You know I was wired
  Dm            Dm/C
I just couldn't help it
    Bb               C
The hundred thousand times i hurt you
 
     F
Dear Joan
  F/E       Dm
I wanted to say
         Dm/C            Bb
That I'm sorry for the screaming last night
        C
And the nights before
          F      F/E       Dm    Dm/C
Well I've wanted more from this
     Bb                 C
Than anything I've ever known
     Dm    F   C   F   Dm  F  C
Dear Joan
 
     Dm   F   C
Dear Joan
     F          Dm        F   C
Your face has a brightness
     F          Dm    F   C
That I've never seen
       F               Dm        F  C
In the years that I've known you
 
     Dm   F  C
Dear Joan
  F           Dm       F  C
I pick up the peices
     F            Dm    F   C
Some scattered too far
         F           Dm      F     C
See they flew when I kicked them
 
  F          F/E
I know you believed
       Dm          Dm/C
When I said it was over
    Bb
You stood by me patiently
C
Waiting and brooding
   F         F/E
So deeply in love
     Dm    Dm/C           Bb    C
With every face that I've shown
 
     F
Dear Joan
  F/E       Dm

     Bb                 C
Than anything I've ever known
 
Dm        C
Once I forget
Bb          C
Twice I'm a fool
      Dm      C
Three times I wrap
   Bb     C          Dm    F  C   F
My hands around your neck
             Dm       F   C
While you're sleeping
       F       Dm        F   C
You're quietly sleeping
F            Dm        F  C
Sleeping and dreaming
 
     Dm   F  C
Dear Joan
      F            Dm      F  C
Don't walk out the doorway
  F            Dm   F  C
Because if you did
                  F        Dm       F    C
I believe I could honestly kill you
 
     F
Dear Joan

Well I've wanted more from this

Than anything I've ever known

The guitar part was not written by Rob Thomas. The lyrics and general flow idea was, the actual guitar part was written by John Goff.
