Ricky Skaggs – Your Old Love Letters (Guitar)

E
Today I burned your old love letters

  B7                        E
I burned them gently one by one

E
And as I  light the flame I read it

   B7                        E    E7
So I could see what you had done

    A                           E
The first you wrote me was the  sweetest

E                              B7
The last one broke my heart in two

    E
Our love now lies among the embers

       B7                          E
In the ashes  of your letter  I am blue

E
As I burned your old love letters

   B7                           E
It brough back memories from the past

E
It told about you and your new love

  B7                      E     E7
A love I knew could never last

    A                           E
The first you wrote me was the  sweetest

E                              B7
The last one broke my heart in two

E
As I light the flame I read it

    B7                     E
For I can say I still love you
