Poet By Bastille Intro (whistling): Obsession it takes control, Obsession it eats me whole, I can't say the words out loud, So in a rhyme I wrote you down, Now you'll live through the ages, I can feel your pulse in the pages. Whoa Whoa oa I have written you down, Now you will live forever, And all the world will read you, And you will live forever, In eyes not yet created, On tongues that are not born, I have written you down, Now you will live forever. Whistling: Your body lies upon the sheets, Of paper and words so sweet, I can't say the words, So I wrote you into my verse, Now you'll live through the ages, I can feel your pulse in the pages. I have read her with these eyes, I've read her with these eyes, I have held her in these hands. I have written you down, Now you will live forever, The virtues in the verse, And you will live forever. Chorus Whistling: You will live forever Tabbed and transposed by James Brockman, using Chordify
