Dear John (Lennon) - 2:19
Dear John,
don't be hard on yourself.
Give yourself a break.
Life wasn't meant to be run.
The race is over, you've won.

Dear John,

Give yourself a break.
Life wasn't meant to be run.

Give yourself a break.
Life wasn't meant to be run.
The race is over.
And dear John,
don't be hard on yourself.
Give yourself a break.
Life wasn't meant to be run.
The race is over.

And dear John,
don't be hard on yourself.
Give yourself a break.
Life wasn't meant to be run.
The race is over.

Wash your mother's back.
The race is over.
