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
