[E] [E] [A] [Am]
[E]
Downtown tonight I saw an old friend, [A] someone who
I
[B] used to take comfort from long before I [E] met you
I caught a spark from her eyes, a forgotten [A] desire
[B] With a word or a touch, Lord, I could have rekindled [E] that fire
But old flames can't hold a candle [A] to you
[B] No one can light up the night [E] like you do
[Dbm] Flickering embers of love I've known one [A] or two
[B] But old flames can't hold a candle [E] to you
[A] [C]
[F] [Bb]
[F] Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've known
And [C] I remember how holding them helped me not feel [F] so alone
[Bb]
Then [F] I feel you beside me and even that [Bb] memories are gone
Like [C] stars in the night lost in the sweet [F] light of dawn
But old flames can't hold a [Bb] candle to you
[C] No one can light up the night [F] like you do
[C] Flickering embers of love I've known [Bb] one or two
[C] But old flames [C] can't hold a candle [F] to you
But
[C] old flames can't hold a candle [F] to you
[Bb]
