My Old Flame

	  		

G  Gdim Bm5-/7  
My old flame    
 E7   Am       Am7        F7  D7  
I can't even think of his name  
   G        C7   F7     Bb6     
But it's funny, now and then  
   Gdim 
Now my thoughts go flashing back again  
D  A7 Am5-/7   D7 D7/13-  
To my old flame  
G  Gdim Bm5-/7   
My old flame    
 E7  Am     Am7        F7  D7  
My new lovers all seem so tame 
    G        C7   F7    Bb6  
For I haven't met a gent so  
    Gdim  
Magnificent or elegant  
 D7  A7   F7  
As my old flame  
Bridge  
Bb               Am5-/7     C#m5-/7  
I've met so many who had fascinatin' ways  
  G7           C4/7     C7  
A fascinatin' gaze in their eyes 
F7        D7  G4  
Some who took me up to the skies 
 A7             D7      C#m5-/7  
But their attempts at love were only imitations of  
G  Gdim Bm5-/7     
My old flame   
   E7   Am    Am7         F7   D7  
I can't even think of his name  
   G       C7     F7    Bb6  
But I'll never be the same 
      Gdim 
Until I discover what became  
 Am C#m5-/7   G  
Of my  old flame
