Key: Bm
Introduction: Bm F# Bm
Bm F#
I saved every letter you wrote me
G D
From the moment I read them
Em Bm
I knew you were mine
F#
You said you were mine
G D C#º
I thought you were mine
Bm F#
Do you know what Angelica said
G D Em
When we saw your first letter arrive?
She said
Bm F#
&ldquo Be careful with that one, love
G D
He will do what it takes to survive.&rdquo
C#º Bm F#
You and your words flooded my senses
G D
Your sentences left me defenseless
Em Bm F#
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
G D C#º
You built cathedrals
Bm F#
I&rsquo m re-reading the letters you wrote me
G D
I&rsquo m searching and scanning for answers
Em Bm
In every line
F#
For some kind of sign
G
And when you were mine
The world seemed to
D Bm F#m F#m/E F#/D G7M
Burn
D Bm F#m F#m/E F#/D G7M
Burn
Bm F#
You published the letters she wrote you
G D
You told the whole world how you brought
Em Bm
This girl into our bed
F# G D C#º
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
Bm F# G
Do you know what Angelica said
D Em
When she read what you&rsquo d done?
Bm
She said
F#
&ldquo You have married an Icarus
G D
He has flown too close to the sun.&rdquo
C#º Bm F#
You and your words, obsessed with your legacy...
G D
Your sentences border on senseless
Em Bm F#
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
G
How they perceive you
You, you, you&hellip
Bm F#
I&rsquo m erasing myself from the narrative
G D Em
Let future historians wonder how Eliza
Bm F#
Reacted when you broke her heart
G
You have torn it all apart
I am watching it
D/A Bm F#m F#m/E F#/D G7M
Burn
D/A Bm F#m F#m/E F#/D G7M
Watching it burn
A D
The world has no right to my heart
F#m
The world has no place in our bed
Bm G
They don&rsquo t get to know what I said
A D
I&rsquo m burning the memories
F#m Bm
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
G A D
You forfeit all rights to my heart
F#m
You forfeit the place in our bed
Bm G
You'll sleep in your office instead
A D
With only the memories
F#m D/F# D/E D G
Of when you were mine
Bm F# G D Em Bm9
I hope that you burn
