Dolly Parton - Old flames

^DDowntown tonight, I saw an old friend someone ^Gwho I ^A7used to take comfort from, long before I met ^Dyou I caught a spark from his ^D7eyes a forgotten ^Gdesire With a ^A7word or a touch, I could have rekindled that ^Dfire

But ^Dold flames, can't hold a candle to ^Gyou ^A7no one can light up the night like you ^Ddo Flickering embers of l^D7ove, I've known one or tw^Go But ^A7old flames, can't hold a candle to ^Dyou

^DSometimes at night I think of old lovers I've ^Gknown I ^A7remember how holding them, helped me not feel so ^Dalone Then I feel you beside me and ^D7even their memories are ^Ggone Like ^A7stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of ^Ddawn

But ^Dold flames, can't hold a candle to ^Gyou ^A7no one can light up the night like you ^Ddo Flickering embers of l^D7ove, I've known one or tw^Go But ^A7old flames, can't hold a candle to ^Dyou
