Old Flames (Can't Hold a Candle to You)

	  		 
(D)Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend someone (G)who 
I (A7 )used to take comfort from, long before I met (D)you 
I caught a spark from his (D7 )eyes a forgotten (G)desire 
With a (A7 )word or a touch, I could have rekindled that (D)fire 
 
Cho: 
But (D)old flames, can't hold a candle to (G)you 
(A7)no one can light up the night like you (D)do 
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or (G)two 
But (A7 )old flames, can't hold a candle to (D)you 
 
(D)Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've (G)known 
I (A7 )remember how holding them, helped me not feel so (D)alone 
Then I feel you beside me and (D7 )even their memories are (G)gone 
Like (A7 )stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of (D)dawn 
Repeat cho:
