Hamilton - Burn Chords

[Verse]
   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   Em
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
Be careful with that one, love
         F#                     G
He will do what it takes to survive.”
 
 D  Em         Bm              F#
You and your words flooded my senses
         G       D          Em
Your sentences left me defenseless
                Bm               F#
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
               G      D   Em
You built cathedrals
        Bm                      F#
Im re-reading the letters you wrote me
        G                          D
Im 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
 
 A Bm F# Gmaj7
Burn
 A Bm F# Gmaj7
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  Em
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
       Bm                      F#
Do you know what Angelica said
           G              D  Em
When she read what youd done?
 
She said
            Bm
You have married an Icarus
         F#                    G
He has flown too close to the sun.”
 
               D    Em
You and your words, obsessed with your legacy...
       Bm                   F#
Your sentences border on senseless
              G                D  Em
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
                   G
How they perceive you
 
You, you, you
 
      Bm                      F#
Im erasing myself from the narrative
      G                 D         Em
Let future historians wonder how Eliza
                            Bm
Reacted when you broke her heart
          F#
You have torn it all apart
       G
I am watching it
 
A Bm F# Gmaj7
Burn
 
 Gmaj7       A Bm F# Gmaj7
Watching it burn
                               Bm
The world has no right to my heart
                               F#
The world has no place in our bed
                               G
They dont get to know what I said
             D      Em
Im burning the memories
             Bm                        F#
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
       G                   D Em
You forfeit all rights to my heart
       Bm                    F#
You forfeit the place in our bed
       G                    D     Em
You sleep in your office instead
       Bm
With only the memories
                   A
Of when you were mine
                 Bm
I hope that you burn
