Intro: C/G 

C/G                                            F 
Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who  
G7                                            C/G 
I used to take comfort from long before I met you  
C                    C7                F 
I saw a spark in his eyes of forgotten desire  
       G7                                         C/G 
With a word or a touch, I could've rekindled that fire  


C/G                                   F 
But old flames can't hold a candle to you  
G                                      C/G 
No one can light up the night like you do  
C                               C7           F 
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two 
G                                     C/G 
But old flames can't hold a candle to you  


C/G                                            F 
Sometimes at night, I think of the lovers I've known  
G7                                           C/G 
Remember 'em holding me helps me not feel so alone  
C                             C7                      F 
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone  
     G7                                            C/G 
Like stars in the night lost in the sweet light of dawn  


C/G                                   F 
But old flames can't hold a candle to you  
G                                      C/G 
No one can light up the night like you do  
C                               C7           F 
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two 
G                                     C/G 
But old flames can't hold a candle to you  
G                                 C/G 
Old flames can't hold a candle to you  

C 
Oh...
