Tom: C
[Intro] C
C F
Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who
G C
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
C F
I saw a spark in his eyes of forgotten desire
G C
With a word or a touch, I could've rekindled that fire
C F
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G C
No one can light up the night like you do
C F
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two
G C
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
C F
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known
G C
Remember 'em holding me helps me not feel so alone
C F
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
G C
Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn
C F
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G C
No one can light up the night like you do
C F
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two
G C
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G C
Old flames can't hold a candle to you
C
Oh
