Your Old Love Letters recorded by Jim Reeves written by Johnny Bond
C
Today I burned your old love letters

  G7                        C
I burned them gently one by one
Before I'd light the flame I'd read it
   G7                          C
To try and find the wrong I've done

    F                          C
The first you wrote me was the sweetest

                               G7
The last one broke my heart in two

    C
Our love is there among the embers

       G7                            C
Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue
Today I burned your old love letters
  G7                        C
I watched our love go up in smoke
I lived again those precious memories
  G7                         C
I heard each tender word you spoke

    F                          C
The first you wrote me was the sweetest

                               G7
The last one said that we were through

    C
Our love is there among the embers

       G7                            C
Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue
