Your Old Love Letters
recorded by Jim Reeves
written by Johnny Bond

C majorC
Today I burned your old love letters
 G7G7            C majorC
I burned them gently one by one

Before I'd light the flame I'd read it
  G7G7             C majorC
To try and find the wrong I've done

  FF             C majorC
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
                G7G7
The last one broke my heart in two
  C majorC
Our love is there among the embers
    G7G7              C majorC
Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue


Today I burned your old love letters
 G7G7            C majorC
I watched our love go up in smoke

I lived again those precious memories
 G7G7             C majorC
I heard each tender word you spoke

  FF             C majorC
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
                G7G7
The last one said that we were through
  C majorC
Our love is there among the embers
    G7G7              C majorC
Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue
