David Allan Coe - Standing too close to the flame

^DThey say love is a fire that?s a lesson that I?ve learned And if you play with fire babe someday you?ll get burned ^GIf you don?t take this warning your young life will never be the ^Dsame A (stop) D I?m tellin? you now girl you?re Standing Too Close To The Flame.

^DThey say don?t light the match unless you can put out the fire It?s much too late to stop now I?m burning with desire My ^Gwhole body is shaking and you say you aren?t feeling any ^Dshame A (stop) D I?m tellin? you now girl you?re Standing Too Close To The Flame.

^GYou see the sparks flying every time that we ^Dtouch ^GWhen you hold me close babe that?s just a little too ^Amuch I can almost smell the smoke now.

^DThey say love is a fire that?s a lesson that I?ve learned And if you play with fire babe someday you?ll get burned ^GIf you don?t take this warning your young life will never be the ^Dsame I?m ^Atellin? you now girl you?re Standing Too Close To The ^DFlame.

^GSee the sparks flying every time that we ^Dtouch ^GWhen you hold me close babe that?s just a little too ^Amuch I can almost smell the smoke now.
