Intro
D Dmaj9 Em7 x2
[Verse 1]
D Dmaj9 Em7 F#m7
I read by line by line by line
D Dmaj9 G/D F#m
Some words of yours, some words of mine
Gadd9 G Esus4 A
Some sentiments are best forgot
F#m7 F(add9)
Some letters read then folded shut
[Verse 2]
D Dmaj9 Em7 F#m7
The profile on the postage stamp
D Dmaj9 G/D F#m
I traced it by my reading lamp
A9 G Esus4 A
Remembered when I'd sit and wait
F#m7 F(add9)
Then marked our parting from that date
[Verse 3]
D Dmaj9 Em7 F#m7
I read by line by line by line
D Dmaj9 G/D F#m
That old sarcastic Valentine
A9 G Esus4 A
That you denied you'd sent to me
F#m7
Then took it back
[Chorus]
G
It's a thought that we shared, a careless phrase
Em7
B curse or a joke, some words of praise
Cmaj7
But I didn't write
Am
Did you wonder why?
A
It was the easiest way to say "Goodbye"
[Verse 4]
D Dmaj9 Em7 F#m7
You'll see my photo beside the article
D Dmaj9 G/D F#m
"That's just some guy I used to know
A9 G
I was never his
Esus4 A
He was always mine
F#m7 F(add9)
But I wrote him off by line by line"
[Outro]
D Dmaj9 Em7 F#m7 D Dmaj9
By line by line by line by line by line by line
Em7 D
By line by line
