  Bm                     F#      
I saved every letter you wrote me
G                   D        
■ From the moment I read them
E               Bm  
I knew you were mine
                  F#7 
You said you were mine
F#                     
I thought you were mine
Bm                  F#           
■  Do you know what Angelica said
G                      D            
When we saw your first letter arrive
    Em7  Bm F#                        
She said Be careful with that one love
Gmaj7                    D         
He will do what it takes to survive
        Bm                 F#       
You and your words flooded my senses
G                      D          
Your sentences left me defenseless
          Bm         F#               
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
          G          D
You built cathedrals ■


[Chorus]
G                                     
I'm rereading the letters you wrote me
Bm                         D                    Bm7 
I'm searching and scanning for answers in every line
              F# F#7 
For some kind of sign
             G        
And when you were mine
          D         Bm7  F# G
The world seemed to burn ■  ■
D Bm7  F# Gmaj7 G Gmaj7 Bm                    F#           
■ Burn ■  ■     ■ You   published the letters she wrote you


[Verse]
Gmaj7                   
You told the whole world
D                              Bm     
How you brought this girl into our bed
            F#       
In clearing your name
                Gmaj7 Dsus4 D Bm7
You have ruined our   lives ■ ■  
                 F#            Gmaj7
Do you know what Angelica said ■    
G                  D         
When she read what you'd done
Bm7             F#7              
She said You've married an Icarus


[Chorus]
G                      D         
He has flown too close to the sun
        Bm7                      F#7        
You and your words obsessed with your legacy
F#m7 G                            
Your sentences border on senseless
    Bm7                 F#7            
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
         G           
How they perceive you
G          
You you you
Bm                          F#       
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
Bm  D                                         
Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted
Bm                 F#7  
When you broke her heart
G                    Gmaj7
You have torn it all apart
                D   
I'm watching it burn
Bm7 F#m7 A G
■   ■    ■ ■
            D    Bm F# A
Watching it burn ■  ■  ■
    G                        D    
The world has no right to my heart
                 A#              
The world has no place in our bed
Bm7                           G   
They don't get to know what I said
Asus4           D       
I'm burning the memories
                                    Bm       Bm7
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
D   Asus4                    D    
You forfeit all rights to my heart
                D               
You forfeit the place in our bed
Bm7                         G      
You'll sleep in your office instead
              D                    A         F#7 D G
With only the memories of when you were mine ■   ■ ■
                Bm     
I hope that you ■  burn


[Outro]
Gmaj7 D Em7 C#sus4
■     ■ ■   ■
