Burn from Hamilton (by Lin-Manuel Miranda)
Bm F# G D Em x2
(ELIZA)
Bm F#I saved every letter you wrote me
G DFrom the moment I read them
Em BmI knew you were mine
F#You said you were mine
G D EmI thought you were mine
Bm F#Do you know what Angelica said
G D EmWhen we saw your first letter arrive?
She said
Bm F#"Be careful with that one, love
G DHe will Do what it takes to survive."
Em Bm F#You and your words flooded my senses
G DYour sentences left me defenseless
Em Bm F#You built me palaces out of paragraphs
G D EmYou built cathedrals
Bm F#I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
G DI'm searching and scanning for answers
Em BmIn every line
F#For some kind of sign
GAnd when you were mine
The world seemed to
D Bm F#m G7Burn
D Bm F#m G7Burn
Bm F#You published the letters she wrote you
G DYou told the whole world how you brought
Em BmThis girl into our bed
F# G D EmIn clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
Bm F# GDo you know what Angelica said
D EmWhen she read what you'd done?
BmShe said
F#"You have married an Icarus
G DHe has flown too close to the sun."
Em Bm F#You and your words, obsessed with your legacy...
G DYour sentences border on senseless
Em Bm F#And you are paranoid in every paragraph
GHow they perceive you
You, you, you...
Bm F#I'm erasing myself from the narrative
G D EmLet future historians wonder how Eliza
Bm F#Reacted when you broke her heart
GYou have torn it all apart
I Am watching it
D Bm F#m G7Burn
D Bm F#m G7Watching it burn
A DThe world has no right to my heart
F#m/C#The world has no place in our bed
Bm7 G7They don't get to know what I said
A DI'm burning the memories
F#m/C# Bm7Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
G7 A DYou forfeit all rights to my heart
F#m/C#You forfeit the place in our bed
Bm7 G7You sleep in your office instead
A DWith only the memories
F#m/C# Bm GOf when you were mine
Bm F# G D Em Bm9I hope that you burn
