[Intro]

Am | E | Am | E 
Am

[Verse 1]
---------------------
  Am                     E 
I saved every letter you wrote me
F                  C
 From the moment I saw you
  Dm            Am
I knew you were mine
                      E 
You said you were mine
                  F
I thought you were mine
C G Am                   E 
         Do you know what Angelica said
       F                  C     Dm
When I told her what you'd done?
She said
Am                     E 
  "You have married an Icarus
       F                      C   G
He has flown too close to the sun"

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Am                 E 
Don't take another step in my direction
 F                  C        Dm
I can't be trusted around you
Am                  E 
Don't think you can talk your way
        F             C   G
Into my arms, into my arms

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
    Am                      E 
I'm burning the letters you wrote me
        F                       C
You can stand over there if you want
        Dm           Am
I don't know who you are
                 E 
I have so much to  learn
F
 I'm rereading your letters
                 C    Am Em 
And watching them   burn

[Post-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F                 C    Am Em  F
 I'm watching them   burn

[Verse 2]
---------------------
    Am                        E 
You published the letters she wrote to you
    F
You told the whole world
        C                 Dm       Am
How you brought this girl into our bed
                 E                        F     C G
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
Am                    E 
Heaven forbid someone whisper
                   F
"He's part of some scheme"
           C
Your enemy whispers
   Dm          Am
So you have to scream
             E 
I know about whispers
  F                      C     G
I see how you look at my sister

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Am     E 
Don't, I'm not naive
F                  C        Dm
I have seen women around you
Am                  E 
Don't think I don't see
                       F
How they fall for your charms
         C     G
All your charms

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
     Am                     E 
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
    F                 C           Dm        Am
Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted
                  E 
When you broke her  heart
F
 You have thrown it all away
                    C    Am Em 
Stand back, watch it   burn

[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
F                 C    Am Em 
 Just watch it all   burn
F                  C
 And when the time comes

[Outro]
---------------------
               Am
Explain to the children
               Em 
The pain and embarrassment
              F
You put their mother through
              G
When will you learn
                   G#dim
That they are your legacy?
            Am
We are your legacy
       Em               F
If you thought you were mine
Don't
