[Intro]
Bm F# Gmaj7 Dsus4 Em9
Bm F# Gmaj7 Dsus4 Em9/C#
[Verse]
Bm F#
I saved every letter you wrote me
Gmaj7 Dsus4
From the moment I read them
Em9 Bm
I knew you were mine
F#
You said you were mine
Gmaj7 Dsus4 C#sus4(b5)
I thought you were mine
Bm F#
Do you know what Angelica said
Gmaj7 Dsus4
When we saw your first letter arrive?
Em9
She said
Bm F#
“Be careful with that one, love
Gmaj7 Dsus4
He will do what it takes to survive.”
[Pre-Chorus]
C#sus4(b5) Bm F#
You and your words flooded my senses
Gmaj7 Dsus4
Your sentences left me defenseless
A7sus/C# Bm F#/A#
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
Gmaj7 Dsus4 C#sus4(b5)
You built cathedrals
Bm F#/C#
I’m re-reading the letters you wrote me
Gmaj7sus/B Dsus4
I’m searching and scanning for answers
Gmaj7 Bm7add4
In every line
D F#/A#
For some kind of sign
Gmaj7
And when you were mine
Dsus4/G Dadd4/G
The world seemed to
[Chorus]
D/A Bm Bm/F# A6sus/E Gmaj7sus/D Dadd4/G Dsus2/4/G
Burn
D/A Bm Bm/F# A6sus/E Gmaj7sus/D G Gmaj7
Burn
[Verse]
Bm F#
You published the letters she wrote you
Gmaj7 Dsus4
You told the whole world how you brought
Em9 Bm
This girl into our bed
F# Gmaj7 Dsus4 C#sus4(b5)
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
Bm7 F#/A#
Do you know what Angelica said
Bm D Dsus4/G Gmaj7
When she read what you’d done?
Bm9
She said
F#m F#/A#
“You have married an Icarus
G9 D
He has flown too close to the sun.”
[Pre-Chorus]
Dadd2/4/E A7 Bm F#7 A#dim
You and your words, obsessed with your legacy...
C#sus4(b5) Gmaj7 A#(b5)/D
Your sentences border on senseless
A#dim/E F#7/C# Bm A#dim F#7/C# Bm
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
F#7/C# Bm F#7/C# G6
How they per - ceive you
N.C.
You, you, you…
Bm F#
I’m erasing myself from the narrative
Dadd4 D5 Aadd4/C#
Let future historians wonder how Eliza
Bm F#
Reacted when you broke her heart
G(b5)add2 G Aadd2/4
You have torn it all apart
B#/F#
I am watching it
[Chorus]
D/A Bm Bm/F# A6sus/E Gmaj7sus/D Dadd4/G
Burn
D
Watching it
D/A Bm Bm/F# A6sus/E Gmaj7sus/D
burn
[Bridge]
G Gadd2/A D
The world has no right to my heart
Dadd(#5)/A#
The world has no place in our bed
D6/B Dadd4/G
They don’t get to know what I said
D/A D
I’m burning the memories
Dadd(#5)/A# D6/B
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
Dadd4/G D/A D
You forfeit all rights to my heart
Dadd(#5)/A#
You forfeit the place in our bed
D6/B Dadd4/G
You'll sleep in your office instead
D/A Dadd4/G
With only the memories
D/A Dadd4/G D Em Gm G
Of when you were mine
D/F# Em Gm/D G
[Outro]
Bm F# Gmaj7 Dsus4 Em9 Bsus2
I hope that you burn
