My old flame

(início)

G  Gdim Bm7/5-   E7   Am        Am7          F7     D7
My old flame . . . I can't even think of his name,
         G               C7   F7      Bb6                Gdim
But it's funny, now and then, how my thoughts go flashing back again
   D  A7  Am7/5-   D7    D7/5+
To my old flame.
G  Gdim Bm7/5-   E7    Am         Am7          F7     D7
My old flame . . . my new lovers all seem so tame,
      G             C7   F7    Bb6        Gdim
For I haven't met a gent so magnificent or elegant
   D7 A7   F7
As my old flame.
Bridge;
Bb                       Am7/5-      C#m7/5-
I've met so many who had fascinatin' ways,
   G7                      C7sus4   C7
A fascinatin' gaze in their eyes;
F7                          D7  Gsus4
Some who took me up to the skies,
    A7                          D7            C#m7/5-
But their attempts at love were only imitations of
G  Gdim Bm7/5-   E7   Am        Am7          F7     D7
My old flame . . . I can't even think of his name,
         G            C7     F7    Bb6            Gdim
But I'll never be the same until I discover what became
   Am C#m7/5-   G
Of my  old   flame.
