OLD FLAMES



(D)Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend someone (G)who
I (A7)used to take comfort from, long before I met (D)you
I caught a spark from his (D7)eyes a forgotten (G)desire
With a (A7)word or a touch, I could have rekindled that (D)fire

Cho:
But (D)old flames, can't hold a candle to (G)you
(A7)no one can light up the night like you (D)do
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or (G)two
But (A7)old flames, can't hold a candle to (D)you

(D)Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've (G)known
I (A7)remember how holding them, helped me not feel so (D)alone
Then I feel you beside me and (D7)even their memories are (G)gone
Like (A7)stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of (D)dawn
Repeat cho:
