Hamilton - Burn Chords

Hamilton - Burn Chords

[Verse]

Bm                       F#
I saved every letter you wrote me
Gmaj7              D
From the moment I read them
     Em         Bm
I knew you were mine
                F#
You said you were mine
                G     D  A/C#
I thought were mine
Bm                       F#
Do you know what Angelica said
Gmaj7                         D(add4)
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."
D/C#          Bm               F#
You and your words flooded my senses
Gmaj7                         D(add4)
Your sentences left me defenseless
Em7           Bm             F#
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
Gmaj7         D       D/C#
You built cathedrals
Bm                       F#/A#
I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
Gmaj7                         D
I'm searching and scanning for answers
Em7       Bm7
In every line
           F#
For some kind of sign
              D/G  Gmaj7
And when you were mine


[Chorus]

G                   D/A  Bm F#m F#m/E F#m/D G
The world seemed to burn
 D/A  Bm F#m F#m/E F#m/D G
Burn


[Verse]

Bm                       F#
You published the letters she wrote you
Gmaj7                               D
You told the whole world how you brought this girl
D/E       Bm
Into our bed
F#
In clearing your name
                    Gmaj7  D  D/E
You have ruined our lives
Bm                       F#
Do you know what Angelica said
Gmaj7                  D
When she read what you'd done?
Em11       Bm9                  F#m  F#
She said: "You have married an Icarus.
G                             D
He has flown too close to the sun."
A7/C#         Bm                       F#7
You and your words obsessed with your legacy
G                          Dsus2
Your sentences border on senseless
A/C#         Bm7               F#7
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
Gmaj9
How they perceive you-
G
You, you, you
Bm                       F#/A#
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
Gmaj9                  D
Let future historians wonder
Em7          Bm7
How Eliza reacted
                 F#7
When you broke her heart
G                     D/G
You have torn it all apart


[Chorus]

G               D/A  Bm F#m F#m/E F#m/D G
I'm watching it burn
D/A  Bm F#m F#m/E F#m/D G
Watching it burn


[Verse]

G                 G/A          D
The world has no right to my heart
                 Bbmaj7#5
The world has no place in our bed
      Bm7                     D/G
They don't get to know what I said
A7sus            D
I'm burning the memories
Bbmaj7#5
Burning the letters
                Bm7
that might have redeemed you
D/G               A7         D(add2)
You forfeit all rights to my heart
                 Gm/Bb
You forfeit the place in our bed
        Bm7                 G
You'll sleep in your office instead
A9           D
With only the memories
                  D/C#    D/F# D/E D G
of when you were mine
               Bm F#/A# Gmaj7 D Em7 Bsus2
I hope that you burn
