That Old Flame - Don Henley & Martina McBride
INTRO: A
VERSE 1:
A D
Got a message in my mailbox from an old friend I hardly see
A E A
All it said was you were trying to get in touch with me
A D
And I stared down at your number, and I felt passion and I felt fear
A E D A
And I wondered what the hell you wanted, after all these years
CHORUS:
A E A D
Cause there is danger in the embers, and you have only yourself to blame
A E D A
If you get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
VERSES 2:
A D
Well I know we ended badly, and I was angry for a long long time
A E A
But I've grown some and I wanted you to know that I'm doing just fine
A D
And I'm not asking for a replay, I got no delusions, got no designs
A E D A
Can I borrow just a little cup of kindness, for Auld Lang Syne
CHORUS:
A E A D
Cause there is danger in the embers, and you have only yourself to blame
A E D A
If you get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
BRIDGE:
F#m D
Speak to me plain, tell me the truth
A E/G# F#m Bm
Is it really me you miss, or just your long lost youth?
SOLO: A | A D | A E/G# F#m | Bm | Bm
FINAL CHORUS:
A E
Yeah, there is danger in the embers
A D
And you know nothing, nothing stays the same
A E D A
Yeah, you can get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
A F#m Bm E D A
Yeah, you can get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
