Old Flames
Old Flames Can't Hold A Candle To You
by Merle Haggard
CF
Downtown tonight I saw an old friend someone who
G7C
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
C7F
I caught a spark from her eyes a forgotten desire
G7C
With a word or a touch I could have rekindled that fire
F
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G7C
No one can light up the night like you do
C7F
Flickering embers of love I've known one or two
G7C
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
F
Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've known
G7C
I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone
C7F
Then I feel you beside me and even their memories are gone
G7C
Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn
repeat #2
