That Old Flame
Don Henley & Martina McBride


A   


             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


Well I know we ended badly, and I was angry for a long long time
But I've grown some and I wanted you to know that I'm doing just fine
And I'm not asking for a replay, I got no delusions, got no designs
Can I borrow just a little cup of kindness, for Auld Lang Syne

CHORUS:
Cause there is danger in the embers, and you have only yourself to blame
If you get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame

BRIDGE:
A                    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

CHORUS:
Yeah, there is danger in the embers
And you know nothing, nothing stays the same
Yeah, you can get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
Yeah, you can get burned when you try to rekindle that old flame
