FLAME TREES by Cold Chisel
An old Aussie favourite by ex-mega band Cold Chisel. No big surprises
here, just a great tune. Enjoy.

Intro: A E A E
AThe kids are driving and Saturday afternEoon just passed me by
AI'm just savouring faEmiliar sights
AWe shared some history,E this town and I
A B G#m Av
And I can't stop that long-forgotten feeling of her
AIn time to book a rBoom and stay tEonight
Number 1 is to find some friends and say "you're doing well --
After all this time you boys look just the same"
Number 2 is the Happy Hour at one of two hotels
And settle in to play "Do you remember so-and-so"
Number 3 is never say her name
CHORUS:
And oh the Aflame trees'll Bblind a weary F#mdriver
Av B E
And there's nothing that can set fire to this town
There's no chAange, there's no pBace, everyC#mthing within its plEace,
Just makes it hAarder to beBlieve that she won't Ebe around
AOh, who needs that sentimental Ebullshit anyway
AIt takes more than just a memory to Emake me cry
AAnd I'm happy just to sit here at a Etable with old friends
AAnd see which one of us can tell the biggest lies E
AAnd there's a girl, she's fallin' in loveE near where the pianola stands
AWith a young local factory auto worker -E- just holdin' hands
And I'm woAndering if he'll G#mgo or if he'll sBtay
CDo you remGember, nothing Cstopped us on the Gfield in our Dday E
CHORUS
