[Verse 1]
  Am                     E7
I saved every letter you wrote me
F                  C
 From the moment I read them
                Am
I knew you were mine
                  E7  
You said you were mine
                    F    C/G
I thought you were mine
 

Am                    E7
   Do you know what Angelica said
        F                       C   
When we saw your first letter arrive?
 
She said
Am           E7
  "Be careful with that  one, love
        F                      C
He will do what it takes to survive."
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
             Am               E7
You and your words flooded my senses
     F                   C
Your sentences left me defenseless
             Am             E7
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
             F        C/G
You built cathedrals
 

       Am                      E7
I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
    F                          C
I'm searching and scanning for answers
         Am
In every line
                 E7
For some kind of sign
                   F    C
And when you were     mine
                
The world seemed to
 
 
[Chorus] (x2)
   CAm     Em
Burn

[Verse 2]
     Am                        E7
 You published the letters she wrote you
    F                            C
You told the whole world how you brought
                    Am
This girl into our bed
                 E7                       FC/G
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
 

Am                   E7
  Do you know what Angelica said
F                         C    
 When she read what you'd done?
 
She said
Am                    E7
  You have married an Icarus
       F                      C
He has flown too close to the sun.
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
             Am                        E7
You and your words, obsessed with your legacy...
     F                   C
Your sentences border on senseless
             Am                E7
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
            FC/G
How they perceive you
 
You, you, you
 
 
[Verse 3]
     Am                     E7
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
    FC
Let future historians wonder how Eliza
  Am                      E7
Reacted when you broke her  heart
F
     You have torn it all apart
 
I am watching it
 
 
[Chorus]
   CAm     Em
Burn

 Watching it burn
 
 
[Bridge A]
      G             C
The world has no right to my heart
                 Em
The world has no place in our bed
     Am                       F
They don't get to know what I said
         G C
I'm burning the memories
            Em                        Am
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
 
 
[Bridge B]
    F             D      C
You forfeit all rights to my heart
                 Em
You forfeit the place in our bed
    Am                     F
You sleep in your office instead
       G       C
With only the memories
                Em    Am  F
Of when you were  mine
 
 
[Outro]
N.C.
I hope that you
 
Burn
