My Old Flame(Chords)

	        

G  Gdim Bm5-/7   E7   Am        Am7          F7     D7 
My old flame       I can't even think of his name, 
         G               C7   F7      Bb6                Gdim 
But it's funny, now and then, how my thoughts go flashing back again 
   D  A7  Am5-/7   D7    D7/13- 
To my old flame. 
G  Gdim Bm5-/7   E7    Am         Am7          F7     D7 
My old flame       my new lovers all seem so tame, 
      G             C7   F7    Bb6        Gdim 
For I haven't met a gent so 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  Gsus4 
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   E7   Am        Am7          F7     D7 
My old flame         I can't even think of his name, 
         G            C7     F7    Bb6            Gdim 
But I'll never be the same until I discover what became 
   Am C#m5-/7  G 
Of my  old   flame.
