INTRO
D G


VERSE 1
G
Today I burned your old love letters
D G
I burned them gently one by one
G
And as I'd light the flame I'd read them
D G
For I could see what you have done


CHORUS
C G
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
D
The last one broke my heart in two
G
And as I'd light the flame I'd read it
D G
For I can say I still love you


VERSE 2
And as I burned your old love letters
It brought back memories from the past
It told about you and your new love
A love I knew could never last


(CHORUS)
