[Verse 1]
F
Now when I woke up this mornin', there was a note upon my door
F
Said: "Don't make me no coffee, babe, I won't be back no more"
                                           C                F
And that's all she wrote (Dear John!) I've sent your saddle home

[Chorus]
F
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale, Daniel in a lion's den
F
I know a man he didn't try to get along and he won't get a chance again
                                           C                   F
And that's all she wrote (Dear John!) I've fetched your saddle home

[Verse 2]
F
Now she didn't forward no address, she didn't say goodbye
F
All she said was: "When you get blue, just hang your little head and cry"
                                       C                F
That's all she wrote (Dear John!) I've sent your saddle home

[Verse 3]
F
My gal's short and stubby, she's strong as she can be
F
And if that little ol' gal of mine, ever gets a hold of me
                                           C                   F
That'll be all she wrote (Dear John!) I'll fetched your saddle home

[Chorus]
F
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale, Daniel in a lion's den
F
I know a man he didn't try to get along and he won't get a chance again
                                           C                F
And that's all she wrote (Dear John!) I've sent your saddle home

[Verse 4]
F
Now I went down to the bank this mornin', the cashier said with a grin:
F
"I feel so sorry for you Hank, but your wife has done been in"
                                           C                   F
And that's all she wrote (Dear John!) I've fetched your saddle home
