A Fire I Cant Put Out

George Strait


Tom: Eb

Capo on the first fret 
 
      D                      G 
     I'm finding out how hot an old flame can burn 
     A7         
     You're a feeling I haven't forgot 
     G                D 
     A love I cant unlearn 
                              G 
     You've become a memory I cant live without 
                        A7              D 
     You'll always be a fire I cant put out 
 
     
     G                             D 
     I dont know how to handle the dream you left behind 
       G                                     A7 
     It's like a lighted candle burning up my mind 
      D                              G             
     At least I'm happy knowing what love was all about 
                       A7               G    G A7 D 
     You'll always be a fire I cant put out  
 
     Verse: 
      D              G 
     Embers to ashes thats how it should be 
      A7 
     You'd think by now my heart would know 
      G                    D 
     That it could set you free 
      D 
     Things I tried tears I've cried 
      G 
     I guess there's no doubt 
                       A7            D      
     Youll always be a fire I cant put out 
 
     Repeat Chorus: 
                       A7              D 
     You'll always be a fire I cant put out
