Old Flames Chords & Lyrics - Dolly Parton

[D]Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend someone [G]who
I [A7]used to take comfort from, long before I met [D]you
I caught a spark from his [D7]eyes a forgotten [G]desire
With a [A7]word or a touch, I could have rekindled that [D]fire

But [D]old flames, can't hold a candle to [G]you
[A7]no one can light up the night like you [D]do
Flickering embers of l[D7]ove, I've known one or tw[G]o
But [A7]old flames, can't hold a candle to [D]you

[D]Sometimes at night I think of old lovers I've [G]known
I [A7]remember how holding them, helped me not feel so [D]alone
Then I feel you beside me and [D7]even their memories are [G]gone
Like [A7]stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of [D]dawn

But [D]old flames, can't hold a candle to [G]you
[A7]no one can light up the night like you [D]do
Flickering embers of l[D7]ove, I've known one or tw[G]o
But [A7]old flames, can't hold a candle to [D]you
