Intro
G# G#maj9 A#m7 x2
[Verse 1]
G# G#maj9 A#m7 Cm7
I read by line by line by line
G# G#maj9 C#/G# Cm
Some words of yours, some words of mine
Gadd9 C# A#sus4 D#
Some sentiments are best forgot
Cm7 F(add9)
Some letters read then folded shut
[Verse 2]
G# G#maj9 A#m7 Cm7
The profile on the postage stamp
G# G#maj9 C#/G# Cm
I traced it by my reading lamp
D#9 C# A#sus4 D#
Remembered when I'd sit and wait
Cm7 F(add9)
Then marked our parting from that date
[Verse 3]
G# G#maj9 A#m7 Cm7
I read by line by line by line
G# G#maj9 C#/G# Cm
That old sarcastic Valentine
D#9 C# A#sus4 D#
That you denied you'd sent to me
Cm7
Then took it back
[Chorus]
C#
It's a thought that we shared, a careless phrase
A#m7
F curse or a joke, some words of praise
Gbmaj7
But I didn't write
D#m
Did you wonder why?
D#
It was the easiest way to say "Goodbye"
[Verse 4]
G# G#maj9 A#m7 Cm7
You'll see my photo beside the article
G# G#maj9 C#/G# Cm
"That's just some guy I used to know
D#9 C#
I was never his
A#sus4 D#
He was always mine
Cm7 F(add9)
But I wrote him off by line by line"
[Outro]
G# G#maj9 A#m7 Cm7 G# G#maj9
By line by line by line by line by line by line
A#m7 G#
By line by line
