Burn - Hamilton chords

Key: Bm Singer/Band: Hamilton


Tone: [Bm]
(Intro)
[Bm] [F#] [G] [D] [Em7]
[Bm] [F#] [G] [D] [Em7]
(Verse)
(ELIZA)
I [Bm]saved every letter you [F#]wrote me
[G]From the moment I [D]read them
I [Em7]knew you were [Bm]mine
You said you were [F#]mine
I thought you were [G]mine [D] [Em7]
[Bm]Do you know what [F#]Angelica said
When we [G]saw your first letter [D]arrive? [Em7]
She said
[Bm]“Be careful with [F#]that one, love
He will [G]do what it takes to [D]survive.”
(Pre-Chorus)
[Em7/C#]You and your [Bm]words flooded my [F#]senses
Your [G]sentences left me [D]defenseless
[Em7]You built me [Bm]palaces out of [F#]paragraphs
You built [G]cathedrals [D] [Em7]
I’m [Bm]re-reading the letters you [F#]wrote me
I’m [G]searching and scanning for [D]answers
In [Em7]every [Bm]line
For some kind of [F#]sign
And when you were [G]mine
The world seemed to
(Chorus)
[D/A]Burn [Bm] [F#m] [F#m/E] [F#/D] [Gmaj7]
[D/A]Burn [Bm] [F#m] [F#m/E] [F#/D] [Gmaj7]
(Verse)
You [Bm]published the letters she [F#]wrote you
You [G]told the whole world how you [D]brought
This girl [Em7]into our [Bm]bed
In clearing your [F#]name,
you have ruined our [G]lives [D] [Em7]
[Bm]Do you know what [F#]Angelica said [G]
When she read what you’d [D]done? [Em7]
She said [Bm]
“You have married an [F#]Icarus
He has [G]flown too close to the [D]sun.”
(Pre-Chorus)
[Em7/C#]You and your [Bm]words, obsessed with your [F#]legacy...
Your [G]sentences border on [D]senseless
[Em7]And you are [Bm]paranoid in every [F#]paragraph
How they [G]perceive you
You, you, you…
I’m [Bm]erasing myself from the [F#]narrative
Let f[G]uture historians wo[D]nder how E[Em7]liza
[Bm]Reacted when you broke [F#]her heart
[G]You have torn it all apart
I am watching it
(Chorus)
[D/A]Burn [Bm] [F#m] [F#m/E] [F#/D] [Gmaj7]
Watching it [D/A]burn [Bm] [F#m] [F#m/E] [F#/D] [Gmaj7]
(Bridge)
The world has no [A]right to my [D]heart
The world has no [D/Bb]place in our bed
They [Bm7]don’t get to know what I [Gmaj7]said
I’m [A]burning the [D]memories
Burning the [D/Bb]letters that might have [Bm7]redeemed you
You fo[Gmaj7]rfeit all ri[A]ghts to my h[D]eart
You forfeit the [D/Bb]place in our bed
You'll [Bm7]sleep in your office [Gmaj7]instead
With [A]only the [D]memories
Of when you [D/Bb]were mine [D/F#] [D/E] [D] [G]
(Outro)
I hope that you [Bm]burn [F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [Bm9]
