Intro
C# G# D#
Obsession it takes control,
C# G# D#
Obsession it eats me whole,
Fm D# G#
I can't say the words out loud,
Fm D# C#
So in a rhyme I wrote you down,
D# G#
Now you'll live through the ages,
C# D# C#
I can feel your pulse in the pages.
[Chorus]
G# D#
Whoa Whoa oa
C# G#
I have written you down,
Fm D#
Now you will live forever,
C# G#
And all the world will read you,
Fm D#
And you will live forever,
C# Fm
In eyes not yet created,
C# G#
On tongues that are not born,
C# G#
I have written you down,
Fm D#
Now you will live forever.
[Whistling: Fm G# Fm D]
C# G# D#
Your body lies upon the sheets,
C# G# D#
Of paper and words so sweet,
Fm D# G#
I can't say the words,
Fm D# G#
So I wrote you into my verse,
C# D# G#
Now you'll live through the ages,
C# D# C#
I can feel your pulse in the pages.
[Chorus]
C#
I have read her with these eyes,
Fm
I've read her with these eyes,
G# D#
I have held her in these hands.
C# G#
I have written you down,
Fm D#
Now you will live forever,

The virtues in the verse,
Fm
And you will live forever.
[Chorus]
