Hot Burnin Flames chords

     G
She left me almost burned out
     C              G
I couldn't feel a thing

A walkin' talkin' statue
                          D
Afraid to love again
              G  
She did everything to kill a flame
          C                          G
But a little spark got through

If she'd a got her way I'd be gone today
          D                     G
If it hadn't been for you

CHORUS
NC          G
You turned cold gray ashes into HOT BURNIN' FLAMES
                                               D
I'm alive with love because of you
  G                                      C                   G 
When you came to light the fire you knew just what to bring
                                                    D                  G

You turned cold gray ashes into HOT BURNIN' FLAMES


        G      
She thought she had me down and out 
       C                G
But at the count of nine
                                         D
A livin' lovin' angel showed up just in time
           G
She thought that I would surely die 
          C               G
Sometimes I wanted to

She had no doubt the fire was out
               D               G
But she didn't count on you
