Naked Flame

	  		
Intro: Bb B C   C 


VERSE 
  C                         Am 
There's a place in my heart  
                     C 
Where you used to be 
                            Am 
There's a pain, deep inside,  
                            F 
Don't want the world to see 
             D 
Nothing, but  
          F                 D 
Emptiness,  once there was your caress 
       C      F 
I was touched  
               Am 
By your naked flame 


VERSE 
C                            Am 
  Now, it was hard sometimes,  
                                  C 
Those things that we went through 
                            Am 
But believe me when I'd say,  
                               F 
I would never mean to hurt you 
          D        F 
I hold the  memory  
              D 
Of holding you  next to me 
       C   F 
In my arms  
               C 
Like a naked flame 


BREAK 
  C      Em 
Think it over  
             D 
Before you break my heart 
  C      Em 
Think it over  
            D 
Before the crying starts 
             F   Ab 
Then we can say  
                 C 
Goodbye to the tears 


BREAK 
G 
  I should have known  
           Am               G 
That this time was a coming 

But if you ever need me,  
 Am          Bb      B       C  G   C 
I'll come a running home to you-ou 


VERSE 
  C                          Am 
There's a place in my dreams  
                      C 
Where we used to meet 
                               Am 
But there's no one around now,  
                          F 
It's just an empty street 
           D        F 
I hold the   memory  
              D 
Holding you close to me 
       C   F 
In my arms,  
              Am 
Like a naked flame 
        C   F 
In my heart,  
                C 
Burns a naked flame
