Verse 1:
C majorC          C majorC             FF   FF
Downtown tonight, I saw an old friend, someone who
G+G           G+G           C majorC  C majorC
I used to take comfort from long before I met you
C majorC            C majorC          FF  FF
I caught a spark in his eyes of forgotten desire
    G+G         G+G            C majorC  C majorC
With a word or a touch, I could've rekindled that fire


Chorus 1:
  C5C5     C5C5           F5F5  F5F5
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G5G5     G5G5             C5C5 C5C5
No one can light up the night like you do
C5C5          C5C5           F5F5  F5F5
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two
  G5G5     G5G5          (C majorC)
But old flames can't hold a candle to you


Post-Chorus 1:
C majorC C7C7 FF F minorFm
     Oh yeah
C majorC C7C7   FF      F minorFm
   Ooh ooh-ooh-ooh

Verse 2:
   C majorC          C majorC            FF   FF
Like sometime tonight, I think of old lovers I've known
    G+G            G+G           C majorC       C majorC
And I remember how holding them helped me not feel so alone (feel so alone)
    C majorC            C majorC            FF   FF
Then I feel you beside me, and even their memories are gone
   G+G          G+G             C majorC   C majorC
Like stars in the night, lost in the sweet light of dawn


Chorus 2:
  C5C5     C5C5           F5F5  F5F5
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
G5G5     G5G5             C5C5 C5C5
No one can light up the night like you do
C5C5          C5C5           F5F5  F5F5
Flickering embers of love, I've known one or two
  G5G5     G5G5           C5C5
But old flames can't hold a candle to you
  G5G5     G5G5          (C majorC)
But old flames can't hold a candle to you


Outro:
C majorC C7C7 FF F minorFm
     Oh yeah
C majorC C7C7  FF F minorFm   (C majorC)
   Ah-ah ah-ah-ah yeah
C majorC C7C7  FF F minorFm
   Ah-ah oh oh-oh-oh
C majorC C7C7 FF F minorFm
Ahhhhhhhhhhh
C majorC C7C7 FF F minorFm
     Can't hold a
C majorC     C7C7   FF     F minorFm
Candle to you, a candle to you
C majorC C7C7   FF  F minorFm
Oh please, oh please
C majorC  C7C7   FF F minorFm
 Oh please, oh please
C majorC
Can't hold a candle to you
