[Intro] (whistling): 
C G Em D/F#


C        G          Em    D/F#
Obsession it takes control,
C        G            Em   D/F#
Obsession it eats me whole,
Em               D/F#      G
I can't say the words out loud,
Em                D/F#     G
So in a rhyme I wrote you down,
C                           D G
Now you'll live through the ages,
       C                      D G 
I can feel your pulse in the pages.


C  G     D/F#
  Whoa, whoa-oa
 

         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever,
    C                   G
And all the world will read you,
     Em              D
And you will live forever,
   C              Em
In eyes not yet created,
    C                    G
On tongues that are not born,
         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever.


Whistling: 
C G Em D/F#


C          G              Em  D/F#
Your body lies upon the sheets,
C       G           Em     D/F#
Of paper and words so sweet,
Em       D/F#    G
I can't say the words,
Em             D/F#     G
So I wrote you into my verse,
C                           D G
Now you'll live through the ages,
       C                      D G 
I can feel your pulse in the pages.


C  G     D/F#
  Whoa, whoa-oa
 

         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever,
    C                   G
And all the world will read you,
     Em              D
And you will live forever,
   C              Em
In eyes not yet created,
    C                    G
On tongues that are not born,
         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever.


C
I have read her with these eyes,
      Em
I've read her with these eyes,           
        G                 D/F#
I have held her in these hands.


         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever,        
     C              G
The virtues in the verse,       
     Em              D
And you will live forever,


         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever,
    C                   G
And all the world will read you,
     Em              D
And you will live forever,
   C              Em
In eyes not yet created,
    C                    G
On tongues that are not born,
         C          G
I have written you down,
     Em              D
Now you will live forever.


[Outro] (whistling):  
C G

 Em            D/F#   (G)
You will live forever
