She Thinks His Name Was John

• C/B

This song is mostly piano but when playing along  
you can pick out the bass notes and fingerpick  
to get the same sound...Larry ? I may have missed a  
transition chord here or there so any comments would help.

C                   Am                C/B C 
She can account for all of the men in her past 
C                            Am                C/B       C 
Where they are now, who they married, how many kids they have 
C                  Am              C/B C 
She knew their backgrounds, family and friends 
C         Am            C/B     Am 
A few she even talks to now and then 
             F             C 
But there is one she can't put her fingers on 
         F       C                Am       
There is one who never leaves her thoughts 
        Am         F    G   C 
And she thinks his name was John 
 
 
A chance meeting, a party a few years back 
Broad shoulders and blue eyes, his hair was so black 
He was a friend of friend you could say 
She let his smile just sweep her away 
And in her heart she knew that it was wrong 
But too much wine and she left his bed at dawn 
And she thinks his name was John 
 
 
Now each day is one day that's left in her life 
She won't know love, have a marriage or sing lullabies 
She lays all alone and cries herself to sleep 
'Cause she let a stranger kill her hopes and her dreams 
And all her friends say what a pity what a loss 
And in the end when she was barely hangin' on 
All she could say is she thinks his name was John 
 
She thinks his name was John
